Speaking to children is an art in itself. It’s worth remembering that they have a very short attention span. Long words confuse them and the very best way to get their attention is to tell a story. Children love humour too so if you can make it a funny story all the better. It will really grab their attention if you make your speech interactive by asking them questions about what you have been saying or asking for comments. You might even find that their comments say it all even better than your own speech!
