A key ingredient of early receptive language is listening and remembering multi-step directions. 

By 2-3 years, typically developing children can follow two part directions, and by 4-5 years they can follow longer directions.* Furthermore, following oral directions requires listeners to attend carefully to language, and is one of the first steps to developing robust Phonological Awareness.*

These Cue the Move Cards are a fun and interactive way to help clients improve attentive listening and auditory memory, and start them on the path to phonological awareness. It’s a bonus for those kids who love to move their bodies!

See my Phonological Awareness Tracking Sheet for other key early listening skills.
