Games for Speech and Language



We discovered two great games this year that will help improve your speech and language skills:

1 Catch Phrase
2 Apples to Apples

Catch Phrase will draw out your ability to deftly describe... during pressure!

Apples to Apples will propel you to use your powers of persuasion. And even if you think you are the perfect persuader, you can never predict how things might progress!

Other commercially available games we love for speech and language development: TriBond, Three for Me, Scrabble, Boggle, Scattergories, Password, and the game whose name I cannot remember where you have to describe word WITHOUT using certain words that are listed (if you know it, please remind me). Have a blast!

Prayers for everyone who has a disability and may have been misunderstood or mischaracterized because of it, and prayers for all those who work with people who have disabilities. If you would like to advocate for having a disability specialist in your church congregation so that more people can be included in your gospel activities, check out the following: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/callings/disability-specialist?lang=eng. I personally believe that having ward and stake disabilities specialists would result in exponential growth of wards and stakes since up to one in four adults in the United States have some type of disability. https://www.nypl.org/blog/2022/07/01/celebrating-disa
