Children need to be good communicators to be successful in day to day living. Parents play an extremely important role in helping their children become good communicators. This "Talking is Key" 12 minute DVD shows examples of children from 3 months to 5 years of age. You can follow the development of speech and language skills throughout these ages. You will also learn everyday tips of how parents help children learn language at each age.

The Talking is Key DVD, available in English and 11 additional voice overs, was developed by the Preschool Speech and Language Services program of the Calgary Health Region, with funding from the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation.
