"Immediately, the title of this presentation catches your attention. You try and pronounce it. You nail it (after a few tries, of course)! But what does it mean? Well, push your everyday playdoh aside for a bit and leave it to Hinda Rubin to introduce you to the world of clay and its one-of-a-kind role in language development. It is clay play like you have never attempted before. You will not be disappointed!"

— Sara Cacal, Special Educator and EC Grad Student

“My 5-year-old son has loved playing and learning with Hinda's Claynguage activities. The conversation prompts give us lots to talk about as he plays with the clay to create objects and scenes of what we discuss. My older daughter has joined in numerous times as well! It really gave us all a fun, sensory way to work on some of our language and communication skills - thumbs up all around! ”

“Hinda Rubin presented her engaging presentation on Claynguage to my Masters in Early Childhood classes at National Louis University several times over the last few years. The presentation was engaging and gave my students great ideas on using clay in their preschool centers. They learned so much from Hinda and are looking forward to using what they learned in their future classrooms.”

“Claynguage has been a great program for childcare centers! The children are able to practice their language skills through the use of clay with Mrs. Hinda. As they roll, push, pull, poke, and squish the clay they talk about the actions they are doing and the ideas that they have. Connecting words to their actions has been beneficial for their language development. It is such a fun and unique way of learning that is always captivating the attention of the children.”

“The brilliant idea of working with clay could only have come from Hinda’s passion for pottery. A skilled clinician, Hinda knew how to strategically target the skills to be developed through discussion during the activity. As a counselor, I know that working with clay can be calming and therapeutic and that most children are interested in playing with clay, and that a relaxed child is receptive to therapeutic goals. In a broader sense, the discussion that evolves during this type of multi-sensory activity can’t help but aid in language development for all children.”

— Leda Scagnelli, Certified School Counselor

“Claynguage is an amazing language stimulation program that is designed to keep children engaged in fun, clay-based activities while expanding their language skills. We have provided this program to many children and based on research, along with parent and teacher report, the program benefits children's language and social development.”
