Learning Through Play!

Talk Time Boston offers language-rich play groups to encourage language and play skills while children explore their environment and engage with their peers. Our groups are run by SLPs and open to children of all communication levels.

Parents are encouraged to step back and observe but are also given strategies for navigating social situations & communication breakdowns with their little ones.

What to Expect...

 

  • Support for both our Little Explorers and Little Navigators, ages 1-7!
     

  • Small, intimate outdoor classes that focus on language enrichment, social interactions,⁠ and parent education. Capped at 8 kids.
     

  • SLP-designed activities that are developmentally-appropriate and fun, focused around the theme of the week.
     

  • Stations for art, sensory play, motor play, and more.
     

  • ​ALL COMMUNICATION LEVELS ALWAYS WELCOME!

TESTIMONIALS

See What Other Parents Are Saying!

TALK TIME PARENT

Our bilingual child loves attending this playgroup! The weekly themes are always engaging and fun, and we notice that they introduce so many new words and concepts. It's incredible to see our child's vocabulary expanding daily. This playgroup has been fantastic for fostering communication and confidence.

MEGAN S.

My 15mo absolutely loves the Little Explorers Playgroup! He has a speech delay and in addition to him having a blast each week, I have noticed a significant improvement in his speech and social skills since finding Talk Time Boston.

TALK TIME PARENT

My son and I love Talk Time’s playgroups! It’s great to meet other kids outside and participate in crafts and activities that I didn’t have to plan or clean-up! This is a great opportunity for us to socialize in a friendly and welcoming environment.
