Babble Play Project

Can an app help your baby babble?

The University of York is running a study for babies with Down Syndrome aged 7-15 months based in the UK.

You can help them find out the answer to this question if:

  • Your baby has Down Syndrome
  • Your baby is aged 3-13 months
  • You are an English-speaking household
  • Your baby can see shapes on a screen
  • You are not enrolled in another speech and language research project

Please contact them to take part - Email babbleds-project@york.ac.uk Phone 07861 361831

You will receive a £95 voucher and a See and Learn kit voucher as a thank you.

*If you are unable to take part at this time, they will be recruiting again up until Spring 2026.
