Teachables Speak & Listen Phone

Speak & Listen Sound Phones, also known as whisper phones, are a practical and child-friendly tool designed to support children's language and literacy development. These lightweight and ergonomically designed phones feature an easy-grip handle, making them ideal for young learners to hold independently. When children speak into the phone, the design amplifies their voice back to them, allowing them to hear themselves clearly. This real-time auditory feedback is highly effective for reinforcing phonemic awareness, improving pronunciation, and supporting reading fluency. Whether used during guided reading sessions, speech therapy, or independent practice, the Speak & Listen Phone encourages children to monitor and self-correct their speech, building confidence and oral language skills in a fun and engaging way. This is a must-have resource for educators and speech pathologists seeking hands-on tools that support early literacy.
