Just 3 Things..‪.‬ Charlotte Hall

In this episode, Charlotte Hall (Speech and Language Therapist, Speech Therapy with Charlotte) and Nicola Crompton (Specialist Teacher and Educational Consultant) discuss how parents can use story time effectively to enhance their child’s speech and language development.

They provide practical tips and strategies for incorporating storytelling into daily routines. Whether you’re waiting for Speech and Language Therapy or simply want to support your child’s communication skills, this episode offers valuable insights.

Key Takeaways:


Engage with Books: Explore age-appropriate books with your child. Discuss the pictures, characters, and storyline. Encourage them to ask questions and express their thoughts.
Narrate and Describe: While reading, describe what’s happening in the story. Use rich vocabulary and encourage your child to do the same. Point out interesting details and ask open-ended questions.
Repeat and Reinforce: Revisit favourite stories. Repetition helps reinforce language patterns and vocabulary. Encourage your child to retell the story in their own words.

Remember, these “Just 3 Things” are simple yet powerful ways to support your child’s speech and language development during story time!
