✨ Top Tips Tuesday ✨

Imitation is the foundation of how children learn.

Before words, before conversations, before independence… children watch, copy and repeat.

When a child can imitate, they are more able to:
✅ learn new play skills
✅ develop speech and language
✅ build social interaction
✅ follow instructions
✅ gain confidence in new environments

If imitation is tricky, learning can feel slow and frustrating.
The good news? 👉 Imitation can be taught, broken into small achievable steps, and practised in fun, motivating ways.

At SENtre we help families understand exactly what to teach, how to teach it, and how to see real progress.

Every small success builds towards bigger outcomes 🌟

This little superstar has quite literally grown up with us 🌟
Watching his journey has been nothing short of incredible.

There was a time when all he could do was shout and scream sounds at us — and no one knew what he needed, wanted, or how to help. Those moments were hard, confusing, and overwhelming for everyone.

Today?
He uses words.
He communicates.
He even spells what he wants.

This Saturday, he carefully spelled “crispy” because he wanted crisps — and honestly, our hearts melted 🥹💚

His family trusted the process, followed the guidance, and worked alongside us. His school noticed the difference too. Progress didn’t happen overnight, but step by step… it happened.

And those Saturday sessions? We couldn’t imagine them without his cheeky smile lighting up the room ✨

Small steps really do create big change.
If you’re wondering what’s possible for your child — let us show you.

What is imitation and why is it so important for children with SEND?

Imitation is the ability to copy actions, sounds, words, or behaviours that someone else demonstrates. This might look like copying a clap, rolling a car, making a sound, or repeating a word.

For many children with SEND, imitation does not develop naturally and needs to be taught step by step.

Why is imitation so important?

✨ It’s the foundation of learning
Children learn by watching and copying others. Imitation is how they begin to learn new skills, routines, and play ideas.

✨ It supports communication and language
Before children can use words, they learn by copying sounds, gestures, and facial expressions. Imitation builds the pathway to speech and communication.

✨ It helps with social interaction
Imitation allows children to join in with others, take turns, and engage in shared play – all key parts of building relationships.

✨ It builds independence
From brushing teeth to getting dressed, many daily life skills are learned through imitation.

At SENtre, we carefully teach imitation in a fun, motivating, and pressure-free way, meeting each child at their developmental level and helping them grow with confidence.

✨ New at SENtre! ✨

We’ve introduced a brand-new jumping toy in our therapy space — designed to help children release energy, regulate their bodies, and most importantly… have fun!

Jumping supports:
✔️ Movement and sensory regulation
✔️ Confidence and body awareness
✔️ Shared enjoyment alongside other children

What we love most? 💫
It naturally creates opportunities for social interaction — without pressure, expectations, or forced engagement. Children can jump together, take turns, watch each other, or simply enjoy being near peers in a relaxed way.

A playful way to support learning, connection, and wellbeing 🌈

✨ Non-verbal does not mean less. ✨

Non-verbal children are listening.
They are thinking.
They are feeling.
They are understanding.

Communication looks different for every child — and words are just one way of being heard. At SENtre, we see the ability, the potential, and the incredible minds behind every form of communication.

Every child deserves to be understood, supported, and believed in. 💚
