The speech-sound journey

How do speech sounds develop?

Children master speech sounds in a rough order as they grow. Choose an age band to see which sounds are usually settling in, and tap a sound to learn more.

Tap a sound to learn more.

These ages are typical guides and vary from child to child. If a sound is well past its usual age, a screening can help.
