  • Development of practical, home-based activity examples.

    • Main Results:

    • A curated list of 9 essential functional communication skills is presented.
    • Examples are provided for enhancing expressive communication (e.g., requesting, commenting).
    • Examples are provided for enhancing receptive communication (e.g., following directions, understanding questions).

    Conclusions:

    • Families can actively promote functional communication skills at home.
    • Targeted strategies can improve both expressive and receptive language abilities.
    • Empowering families with practical tools supports children's communication development.
