Many children learn sounds in their own time, through play, chatter, and everyday discovery. This checklist gives you a clear guide to typical speech sound milestones between ages 2 and 6.
It’s not about ticking every box or keeping up with others, it’s about noticing progress, celebrating wins, and knowing when extra support might be helpful.
✅ What you’ll find inside:
A sound-by-sound guide for ages 2–6
Tips on how to spot sounds in play, babbling, and favourite words
A simple YES/NO tracker to record what your child is experimenting with
Think of it as a gentle map to help you observe, reflect, and celebrate your child’s unique voice.
If you have questions or want more guidance, a speech pathologist can offer friendly, tailored support, because every voice matters, exactly as it is.
