Parents looking for value for money ways to keep kids entertained this half-term have been told of the importance of communication for little ones' development.
Clare Geldard, director of operations at I CAN, said that all kids must learn to do this, as it is a vital life skill.
"Talking and understanding are the most common skills used in learning at school and we know that a communication difficulty will make it hard for a child to learn as well as other children can," she said.
Ms Geldard said that little ones can "reach their full potential" if they learn good communication skills, which could be learnt by taking part in value for money activities at summer camps in England.
In addition, Ofsted's recent Removing Barriers to Literacy report warned that youngsters who find it difficult to listen and speak properly will also find it hard to write and read. The report said that phonics work can help solve the problem.
