My child can answer… but doesn’t ask questions.”
We hear this from so many parents.
Asking questions is not just language — it’s curiosity, thinking, problem-solving and social connection.
But many children struggle with initiating questions even though they can respond to them.
At our centre, we systematically teach children how to ask questions by helping them understand:
🔸 What is a question?
Children first need to understand the concept of questioning — not just copy a sentence.
🔸 Why do we ask questions?
To get information, to learn, to connect, to explore. When children understand the purpose, curiosity awakens.
🔸 How to build curiosity?
We create playful routines, surprises, sensory experiences, and real-life moments that naturally make children wonder and want to know more.
🔸 How to practice safely?
We give opportunities every session — through books, play, visuals, AAC, role-play, and daily routines — to help children initiate questions, not just respond.
Every child can learn to ask questions when we teach the skill step-by-step, support their communication style, and make learning meaningful.
