Designed for children developing language skills typically seen between ages 3–5, this collection lays the groundwork for classroom learning and early literacy by building strong early concept knowledge and simple sentence use.
Bears & Chairs Language Kit
  • Teach essential early concepts (colour, size, position, quantity, time) using engaging manipulatives that make learning concrete and memorable.
  • Support children in understanding and producing simple sentences that include targeted vocabulary.
  • Strengthen attention, engagement, and verbal working memory—key executive functioning skills for school readiness.
Bears & Chairs Expansion Resources
  • Practical tools and additional activities that reinforce targeted vocabulary and sentence practice.
Visual Support Talking Tiles
  • Picture tiles that add meaning to the vocabulary used in this kit and can be combined to build simple sentences.

How to use receptively (listening)

First you're the speaker. Pick up a card and read the sentence at the top. Then the child will arrange the objects to show their understanding. Reveal the card and together compare the image to the arrangement. If it matches, yay! if not, this is your teaching moment.

How to use expressively (speaking)

The child picks up a card and describes the image. The listener arranges the objects as they described. The picture card is revealed and compared to the arrangement. If it matches, yay! If not, help them say it better.

Great as a small group activity

Perfect as a tabletop activity for 4–5 students. Place the objects on a tray so they can be easily passed to the “listener.” Read a card aloud and have the listener take the required items off the tray to make the arrangement. Provide any supports the child may need, and let them keep the picture card as a point. The items are then returned to the tray, and the process is repeated with the next child. This also makes a wonderful “buddy class” activity, where older students can take on the role of the “teacher.”

Give children the communication skills they need to succeed

Language is the foundation that literacy sits upon. Learning to read and write doesn’t start with text; it starts with language.

Vocabulary, listening, speaking, memory, and social interaction are the critical skills needed for the development of literacy and academic learning.

Our multi-sensory approach makes language learning meaningful and memorable.
