Parent Support Program "It Takes Two to Talk"
At Logolab, we organize the Hanen program "It Takes Two to Talk", designed for parents of children with speech and language development challenges. The program is held once a year, lasts four months, and has a limited number of participants.
Children under the age of three learn speech, language, and communication skills through play and interaction with the adults they love. The Hanen program equips parents with tools and knowledge to adapt their communication style to support their child’s speech, language, and communication development.
Who Is the Program For?
The program is intended for parents of children who:
- Are not yet using words but communicate through eye contact, pointing, reaching, etc.
- Occasionally use a word or gesture;
- Combine two to three words (e.g., "Mama, give," "More yum-yum").
What Will Parents Learn?
During the program, parents will discover:
- How their child communicates and what steps they can take to support them;
- What motivates their child to communicate;
- How to engage their child in turn-taking conversations, even before they start speaking;
- How to turn everyday situations into opportunities for learning new words;
- How to express themselves in ways their child understands, encouraging language learning.
What Does the Program Include?
- Individual Sessions: 10 hours of one-on-one work with a certified Hanen speech therapist.
- Materials in English: All resources are available in English.
