Talking to your baby or child when out and about...
The walk and talk trail contains ideas and tips to help you chat to your baby or child more while you are out and about.
The walk and talk trail and additional activities on this page will support you to introduce language to your baby or child. This will help them begin talking, or help them develop language and build vocabulary even if your child is already very chatty.
90% of your child’s brain has developed by the time they are five years old. You can help this development by using as many opportunities as you can to talk to them, listen to them and introduce them to new things.
The walk and talk trail will help you get started. The tips, advice and activity ideas below will also support their communication skills.
