💬 Expressive Language Strategies – Caregiver Coaching Create Opportunities To Comment or Question

Support early communication development with this expressive language resource created by a pediatric speech language pathologist for caregivers, early intervention providers, and daycare settings.

This resource targets foundational expressive language skills, including increasing word use, expanding vocabulary, and encouraging intentional communication through everyday routines and play. Caregivers are guided with simple, evidence-based strategies such as modeling, expanding, and providing wait time to support a child’s ability to use words and beginning phrases. This is perfect for children who are beginning to use sounds, gestures, or single words and are working toward more consistent and functional verbal communication.
