Support children’s speaking and listening skills with our communication and language resources for the Early Years. Designed for Nursery and Reception, these resources help build vocabulary, encourage conversation and support understanding – all through play and meaningful interactions.
Explore our full range of activities, display materials and games, as well as linked phonics resources to help children tune into sounds, develop oral blending skills and prepare for early reading.
Our Early Years communication and language development resources help children build the speaking and listening skills they need for success across the curriculum. Aligned with the EYFS framework, our activities support key areas such as attention, understanding, vocabulary building, and expressive language.
From Phase 1 phonics resources and oral blending games to CVC word activities, common exception words and high frequency word cards, we provide a full range of tools to support early language development. These resources are ideal for whole-class teaching, interventions, continuous provision and language-rich environments in Nursery and Reception classrooms.
