One in fourteen children face communication delays
Yet resources are limited, especially in smaller markets like New Zealand, leading to months-long waitlists or costly private care. Sign language can transform these challenges, empowering children to express thoughts, emotions, and needs while boosting confidence, cognitive growth, and inclusion.
It’s a life-changing tool for every young learner.

My Why
As a parent of a minimally speaking child, I recognise the importance of accessible communication resources for all children. Chatter Hands was created to provide engaging tools that empower every child to express themselves and connect with others.
Our resources are designed to help all children, regardless of their communication abilities, express themselves and connect with their friends, families, and communities.
