Getting Kids to Listen | Speech Therapy | Child Communication | Parenting Strategies
Are you tired of repeating yourself, dealing with meltdowns, or wondering why your child still isn’t listening? Are you worried about speech delays, language development, behavior challenges, or communication struggles?
Welcome to The Language of Play podcast—where speech therapy meets real-life parenting.
I’m Dinalynn Rosenbush—mom, grandma, Speech-Language Pathologist, parent coach, and host of a top-ranked parenting podcast helping overwhelmed parents build calmer homes, stronger relationships, and better communication with their children.
This podcast helps parents understand behavior as communication so they can support listening, emotional regulation, speech, and connection in everyday life.
In each episode, you’ll learn practical, brain-based strategies to:
• Help kids listen without constant power struggles
• Support speech and language development naturally
• Reduce tantrums, whining, and communication frustration
• Build connection, emotional safety, and confidence
• Understand speech delays, language processing, and child behavior
• Use simple communication tools that work in everyday moments
These strategies support typically developing children, late talkers, dual-language learners, neurodivergent children, and kids with speech or language delays.
Each episode is filled with simple, playful tools you can start using right away—because communication growth happens best through connection, play, and everyday interaction.
If you’re longing for calmer parenting, deeper connection, more listening, and a home filled with confidence, curiosity, and communication, you’re in the right place.
So grab a cup of coffee, bring your real-life parenting questions, and come explore The Language of Play with me.

180 Child Stuck On Past Tense Mistakes? How To Help In 4 Steps!
jeudi 19 septembre 2024 • Durée 19:38
Hey Friends~
Is your child using past tense mistakes like “I maked it,” instead of “I made it” ?
Do they use present tense instead of past: “I cook,” when it was actually this morning when they helped with breakfast?
Past tense errors are a common indicator showing a child needs some help with language development. A common mistake parents make is thinking the child will simply figure it out. While that can be true sometimes, waiting also allows them to create habits that later need to be undone and re-learned.
If you’d like to know how to help your child with using better language NOW, listen in for 4 simple steps to make the correction easy. Why not help your child early, along the way, as they are developing!
Always cheering you on!

Épisode 80
vendredi 15 septembre 2023 • Durée 12:43
Hey Friends,
When we tell our kids to do things, we know what we expect they do. It is natural for us to think they understand the whole picture when they have demonstrated in the past, they can do it. However, their behavior tells you what your child does not yet FULLY understand. Their behavior - or lack thereof - is a window into what you still need to TEACH.
So, today's topic is the difference between TEACHING and TELLING! And a story of what happens when we TELL and wrongly think that we already taught!
I'm always cheering you on!

I know that Back to School means that you are now doing morning routines! How do you get those morning routines to become automatic for your kids? Today's Episode will give you one really effective strategy! Of course it means YOU need to do it at the start, but if you do it right, the routines will be done - the way you want them done - and if you set it up well, those routines can move into auto-pilot!
Grab your pen and paper, and let's make a plan!
If this example doesn't meet the needs you have in your family, and you are ready for help, contact me to discuss how we can work together!
