DISCOVER the POWER of PLAY for Your Child’s Development

WITCHES & WIZARDS

Did you know PLAY is one of the most powerful tools for your child's language development, learning and social skills?

Play is a fundamental activity for young children that naturally supports their growth across multiple developmental areas. It provides a meaningful context where children experiment with language, learn new words, and practice social skills. Recognising play as a powerful tool, this workshop explores how engaging in different types of play encourages language learning and lays the foundation for effective communication skills.

Play provides a natural, motivating environment for children to expand their vocabulary, practice grammar, and understand language concepts. It fosters expressive skills through speaking and listening, supports comprehension through active engagement, and encourages social communication like turn-taking, requesting, and commenting. Importantly, play also enhances cognitive development and emotional regulation, creating a holistic approach to learning that makes language development enjoyable and meaningful.

Our engaging workshop helps children aged 4-7 years old develop their language skills through play. Led by a Speech Pathologist, it’s designed for kids of all abilities to thrive!

Witchcraft, often linked to ancient legends and mysterious spells, provides a rich source of playful activities for young aspiring witches and wizards. From enchanting crafts that spark creativity, to sensory play that awakens the imagination, to fine motor tasks that develop dexterity, there are countless ways to combine fun and learning in magical ways.

Here are some of the incredible benefits of play:

• Developing Language Skills: When children play, they naturally learn new words tied to actions, objects and interactions, supporting their ability to express themselves clearly.

• Boost Social Communication: Play teaches essential social skills like turn-taking, requesting, commenting and sharing, helping your child connect with others as they learn to communicate more effectively in a group.

• Encourage Cognitive Growth: Play and language development are fundamental to your child’s cognitive development as play provides them with natural opportunities to explore, problem solve and understand the world around them. As your child’s ability to communicate and interact during play increases, they strengthen their cognitive skills such as attention, memory, and sequencing, laying a strong foundation for academic success and lifelong learning.

• Reduce Frustration: As your child participates in play, they learn new words, gestures and social routines which lets them express their emotions, and desires easier. Their increased ability to communicate effectively helps them to feel understood and more confident, decreasing feelings of frustration and anxiety.At Know Howe Speech Therapy, we are passionate about nurturing your child’s potential through play. Our groups are centred around creating a supportive and engaging environment for your child to develop their play and language skills
