This video from the Childhood Education Zone [United States], explores how cognition supports language development in children. It explains how key cognitive skills, including verbal cognition, processing speed, memory, and executive functions, influence how children acquire and use language.
The video also highlights the role of non-verbal cognition in understanding and interacting with language. Practical activities are shared to help parents and educators strengthen cognitive skills at home and in the classroom. The importance of early identification and intervention is emphasised to support more effective language development.
