The importance of parents’ participation in the intervention process of their child who is deaf or hard of hearing has been well documented. To provide families with increased opportunities to practice auditory-teaching strategies Hearts for Hearing developed Listening for Littles, a parent toddler group. The families’ participation in the parent toddler group has provided a better understanding of auditory teaching strategies and their use during small listening and language learning groups. These listening and language learning groups are facilitated by a Listening and Spoken Language Specialist, Certified Auditory-Verbal Therapist (LSLS, Cert. AVT). The families have opportunities to practice the strategies under the guidance of the LSLS Cert. AVT and benefit from the support and encouragement from other families of children with hearing loss who are also navigating the path of teaching their toddler to learn to listen and talk. Additionally, a weekly home activity is provided which targets opportunities to implement the auditory teaching strategy within a specific play routine. It is also paramount each toddler’s hearing technology be in working order to succeed in their listening and language learning. Another unique aspect of this model is the support an audiologist lends to young toddlers listening and learning language in a small group setting.
