All 15 Early Soundplay Books

Award winning Early Soundplay series of 15 books designed to develop all 2 to 5 year olds children’s speech, language and early literacy skills.

Written by a speech and language therapist this expertly crafted series is packed with multiple repetitions of selected sounds and rhymes. Each story is full of sound play and focuses on a different target sound or sounds.

Children enjoy engaging in a wide variety of sound play and it helps develop their ability to recognise individual sounds in words. This is not only important for clear speech but also gives them a head start in phonics and learning to read and spell.

“As a nursery setting we have purchased a full set of Clickety books. They are loved by children and adults, provide us with a fantastic phonic base for activities and are extremely age friendly (2 yrs to 5 yrs).”
Clare Harle, Hurley Nursery

Children also love repetition! It helps them build their knowledge and understanding of word meanings and story structure. We hope that you will enjoy each story again, again and again!

“We read at least one of the books from the Clickety range each day with the children because they are a joy to read. The books are so colourful and the children think that the illustrations are funny. The books are great for speech and language development because of the rhyming and repetitive words and phrases used throughout the books. The children join in with the stories and engage well whilst the story is being read.”
Carmen, Owner, Corwen Day Nursery

The simple, interactive storylines make it easy for children to anticipate what happens next and to join in when they hear the stories again. This provides lots of opportunities for them to both hear and practise saying words.

The Early Soundplay stories lend themselves to small group work. They provide intense, repeated exposure to multiple examples of a given sound target or targets, in a range of different words, making them ideal for providing additional support for children with EAL or speech and language difficulties.

“You do not have to be experienced in supporting children with speech, language and communication delay when you work with a Clickety Book title. These picture books are designed by experts to be a user-friendly tool for all.”
