Why Communication Toys Are Great for People with Additional Needs

Communication toys give people with additional needs a voice. For those of us who are non-speaking, pre-verbal, or developing early language skills, these toys support expression, interaction, and understanding. By combining sound, repetition, and simple activation, communication toys help bridge the gap between thoughts and words, building confidence and connection.

Supports Non-Verbal Communication

For those of us who don’t use spoken words, communication toys can provide alternative ways to express wants, needs, and preferences. Use the Clear Painting Easel to express yourself in vibrant colour.

Builds Confidence in Expressive Skills

When communication feels possible, confidence grows. Toys that allow us to “say” something and get a response help us feel heard and understood. The Sound Bank encourages vocalisation and play by repeating what we say.

Promotes Turn-Taking and Social Engagement

Communication isn’t just about talking - it’s about connection. These toys help us take turns, listen, and respond in ways that support positive social interaction. Try the Kibo instrument to support auditory discrimination and back-and-forth interaction.

Makes Communication Playful and Low-Pressure

For those of us who find verbal expression stressful, communication toys offer low-pressure ways to participate and engage. Playful responses reduce anxiety and invite more interaction. The Sound and Light Panel turns voice play into an enjoyable activity, supporting expressive freedom.
