Play into Summer!

Playing outdoors is essential for our children and young people to understand, value, enjoy and protect our natural world. In Scotland, this means playing outside in all weathers.

The summer is a treasure trove of experiences and play opportunities that are vital to development and enjoyment. The days get longer and nature is all around.

Summer is a wonderful time to explore your community and natural environment - get out and play!

Early Talk Boost

Early Talk Boost is a targeted intervention aimed at 3-4 year old children with delayed language helping to boost their language skills to help narrow the gap between them and their peers. The programme aims to accelerate children's progress in language and communication by an average of 6 months, after a nine week intervention.
Who isEarly Talk Boosttraining for?
The training is for early years practitioners working with groups of 3-4 year olds in early years settings. Participants will develop the skills and knowledge to understand the rationale behind Early Talk Boost, identify appropriate children, measure their progress and deliver the intervention successfully.

The training is on-site in your workplace. If you are a small setting you might wish to consider grouping your staff together with other settings for the training and sharing the costs between yourselves.
How will children improve their language and communication skills?
Children who are selected to take part in the intervention will attend three sessions per week during circle/story time, each lasting 15-20 minutes delivered by an early years practitioner.

The sessions include activities that cover the foundation skills in speech, language and communication that children need for learning and understanding new words, as well as having conversations.
