Two Can Talk Speech and Language Therapy

❄️ Snow day = Speech Day!

If the snow has brought excitement (and a bit of chaos!) to your morning, you’re not alone. But it’s also a brilliant chance to boost your child’s language skills through simple play and real-life experiences...

Here are a few snowy ways to grow speech at home or outside:

☃️ Talk while you build – “Roll the snow,” “Big ball,” “Let’s make a nose!”
🧊 Explore texture – “Cold!” “Wet!” “Soft?” “Hard?” “It’s melting!”
🎯 Practice action words – “Throw,” “Catch,” “Push,” “Slide”
🗣️ Use sound play – “Brrr!” “Uh-oh!” “Crunch!” “Wheee!”

Snowy moments help children:
🧠 Build vocabulary
🗣️ Understand and use action words
👂 Tune into sounds and sensory experiences
❤️ Talk and play in meaningful ways

✨ So pop on the wellies and make the most of this frosty opportunity!

🛠️ Beauty from chaos!

We're not just renovating — we're reimagining what a therapy space can feel like 💭

This isn’t an off-the-shelf clinic. We’re shaping every wall, room and corner to reflect what we believe in:
🧒 Child-led spaces
🎨 Calming, creative environments
🤝 Thoughtful design for families and therapists alike

Because when a space is built for purpose, it makes all the difference in how children feel, learn and grow.

We can’t wait to show you more soon… 👀

🧠 Big feelings, changing seasons, new experiences…

For children, change can be confusing — even when it seems small to us.

Starting a new school.
Moving house.
A parent returning to work.
Even just saying goodbye at drop-off.

These little moments can bring big feelings — and many children don’t yet have the words to explain what’s going on inside 💛

That’s where child psychotherapy can help.

Through gentle, play-based sessions grounded in trust and emotional safety, our art psychotherapist supports children to:

🧠 Process change and uncertainty
🎨 Express emotions in a way that feels safe and natural — no pressure to “talk it out”
💬 Build emotional literacy and resilience
🤝 Feel more secure, confident, and connected

Change is part of life — but learning to manage it?
That’s something we can support together.

🌧️ Rainy days = the perfect chance to grow little voices indoors!

Wet weather may be coming, but there’s plenty of communication magic to be found inside 🧠💬

Here are a few simple, speech-boosting activities for a rainy day at home:

☔ Window watching – “Drip drop!” “Big splash!” “It’s windy!”
📦 Build a rainy day den – narrate as you build: “Blanket on top,” “Push the chair,” “Hide inside!”
🎨 Puddle-themed art – paint splats or raindrops and talk about colours, sizes, and actions
🧸 Pretend play – get out dolls or animals and act out getting caught in the rain (“Quick! Run!” “Let’s get dry.”)

Talking during play helps your child:
🧠 Learn new words
🗣️ Understand action and emotion words
❤️ Build confidence in their voice

Rainy days don’t have to be quiet ones ☔💛

Big things are coming.

We’ve been busy working on a brand new space that reflects just how much Two Can Talk has grown 🏡✨

We’re not quite ready to give away all the details…
But let’s just say it’s bigger, better and beautifully designed with children and families in mind 💛

Think:
🔧 Purpose-built therapy spaces
👣 Room to grow
🫶 A place where our team (and your little ones) can truly thrive

We can’t wait to welcome you in soon.
For now, here’s a little peek from the outside... 👀

🤝 What a day for Team Two Can Talk!

We brought our whole staff team together for a day of connection, learning and shared purpose — in a space that we’re very excited to share more about soon… 👀✨

From a business that started with just a handful of therapists (and an ambitious Mags!) to a full multi-disciplinary service, it’s a joy to see so many passionate, kind and dedicated professionals in one room, working together to support our children and families.

Here’s to new spaces, new goals and the same truly heartfelt care that has always been at the centre of Two Can Talk 💛

We LOVE learning from other specialists and Sarah Oakley is one of the best in the business 🙌

Shout out for the speech and language therapists Jude and Amy who came to my study day today in Ely.

🎨 Art that opens up feelings. Support that makes children feel safe.

We recently welcomed two little ones to a taster session with Victoria, our talented art therapist — and the feedback says it all 💛

In art therapy, it’s not about creating a perfect picture. It’s about creating a space where children feel calm, heard and free to express whatever’s on their mind. And Victoria does just that 🖌️🌈

If your child finds it tricky to talk about their feelings, art therapy might be a gentle, creative way to help them open up.

Get in touch today to chat about how art therapy could help your family.

🍂 New season, new words, new opportunities

As the leaves start to fall and the air turns crisp, autumn brings a fresh season of discovery — and with it, so many ways to grow your child’s language.

You don’t need flashcards, just everyday moments like:
👉 Crunching leaves: “Crunch! Big leaf! Yellow!”
👉 Getting dressed: “Coat on. Zip up!”
👉 Talking about the weather: “Windy today!" or “Look! It’s raining!”
👉 Exploring nature together: “Wow... A conker!” “Can you find something red?”

Real words in real-life moments help your child:
🧠 Learn vocabulary
👂 Understand routines
🗣️ Build early sentences
❤️ Connect with you through conversation

✨ So as the seasons change, let’s slow down, talk more and enjoy those little moments that grow big communication skills.

🥄 Feeding challenges? You're not alone — and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

Some children find feeding tricky; whether it's refusing certain textures, gagging on foods, struggling with chewing, or finding mealtimes overwhelming... That’s where we come in.

At Two Can Talk, our specialist feeding team includes:
🗣️ Speech and language therapists
✋ Occupational therapists
🧠 Professionals trained in sensory and motor-based feeding difficulties

Together, we support your child to:
👉 Build confidence around food by exploring new textures, smells and flavours
👉 Improve oral motor skills
👉 Reduce stress at mealtimes — for them and for you

Feeding is about more than nutrition — it’s about comfort, safety, and connection ❤️

And every child deserves to enjoy those moments.

💡 If you have concerns about your child’s feeding, even if they seem “mild” — we’re here to help.

💛 What’s one thing your child can do now… that they couldn’t six months ago?

Maybe it’s saying a new word. Maybe it’s using a sound or gesture to let you know what they want. Maybe it’s simply making more eye contact… or moving along to their favourite song 🎶🧠

Communication isn’t just about words — it’s about connection.

And every small step is worth celebrating 💬🌱

👇 Share a moment that made you stop and smile. Let’s cheer each other on — no matter where your child is on their journey.
