The review begins by elucidating the foundational aspects of speech and language development in children, emphasizing the critical role these skills play in academic success, social interaction, and overall well-being. It delves into the diverse range of speech and language disorders that children may experience, ranging from articulation and phonological disorders to language delays and fluency issues. A substantial portion of the review is dedicated to outlining the core principles and methodologies employed in speech therapy for children. Traditional therapeutic approaches, such as articulation therapy and language intervention, are discussed alongside contemporary techniques like augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and technology-assisted interventions. The effectiveness of early intervention strategies is underscored, emphasizing the importance of identifying and addressing speech and language issues in the formative years.

The review concludes by synthesizing key findings, emphasizing the ongoing research directions and potential future developments in the field of speech therapy for children.
