Support Early Vocabulary and Language with High-Quality EYFS Resources

Explore our full collection of language-rich EYFS resources to help build children’s vocabulary, develop communication and spark meaningful talk during play. These resources are ideal for supporting the EYFS Communication and Language Early Learning Goal and align with Development Matters 2021. Whether you’re setting up continuous provision areas or planning focused interventions, you’ll find tools to encourage high-quality interactions across your Early Years setting.

Each resource has been designed to support spoken language through rich vocabulary and clear visuals. You’ll find:

  • Role play area display labels with real-life vocabulary
  • Creative area language prompts for expressive arts
  • Maths area and construction labels to support reasoning talk
  • Reading corner prompts to build comprehension and book talk
  • Malleable, sand and water area labels for everyday vocabulary exposure
  • Small world and investigation area vocabulary cards to extend language in play

This category also includes our Rhyme Town scheme – a 14-week EYFS pre-reading and pre-writing programme based on Phase 1 phonics and nursery rhymes. It’s a perfect way to introduce mark making and listening skills in a meaningful, contextualised way, supporting both language development and phonological awareness.

All of our language and vocabulary resources for EYFS are created with both practitioners and children in mind – easy to use, clearly labelled, and effective in supporting progress. They’re also ideal for children with EAL or those who need additional help with spoken language and vocabulary building.

Use these EYFS language development resources throughout the year to enrich your provision, support interactions, and meet the Communication and Language ELG with confidence.
