Category: Consonants

Consonants are speech sounds that are produced when air flow is obstructed in some way by the tongue, lips, or teeth, as opposed to vowels which are produced without any significant obstruction of air flow. Learning consonants is important for kids as it helps in the development of their language and communication skills. Consonants help in forming the basic structure of any word and provide a rhythmic flow to the language. Knowing consonants enables kids to form words correctly, which in turn helps them to understand the words they hear from others. It also helps kids to improve their pronunciation and communication skills, which are important for success in school and in life. Therefore, it is crucial for kids to learn consonants at an early age to have a strong foundation in language and communication.
