Free Printable Core Word Board

Thirty everyday words to point to, coloured by kind, and a page of plain tips for using it at home.

What you type stays on your phone.

How to use it
  1. Print it and keep it where you are together: the table, the fridge, the car, the bag.
  2. Point to the words as you talk: "want ... more ... juice?" Your child learns the board by watching you use it.
  3. Read page 2 for more, and ask your child's speech therapist which words to start with.

Why it helps

A small set of words does most of the talking in a day: want, more, stop, go, help. A board with those words lets a child say a lot with one point, and lets you show how, all day long.
