Expressive and Receptive Language Development

At KITES Child Development Centre, building strong expressive and receptive language skills is a core focus of our therapy. Expressive language involves a child’s ability to use words, sentences, and gestures to convey thoughts, while receptive language refers to understanding spoken language, following directions, and interpreting meaning.

Our interventions aim to expand vocabulary, improve sentence structure, enhance comprehension, and develop conversational abilities across a variety of settings. Children are supported through expansion and extension techniques, visual aids, structured receptive and expressive language drills, storytelling activities, and functional communication training (FCT) that tie language growth to everyday experiences.

We integrate play-based tasks, interactive reading sessions, and real-life conversation routines to make language development natural, engaging, and meaningful. Therapy is designed to bridge skills into daily life, helping children follow classroom instructions, express needs clearly, and engage in age-appropriate conversations.

We believe that strengthening both understanding and expression lays the foundation for lifelong communication success, learning, and meaningful participation in the world.
