Hebrew at home, with love.
How Speakyti started, who's behind it, and why we believe Hebrew belongs in everyday play — not just at school.
I'm Yifat — a speech therapist and a mom. I built Speakyti because I couldn't find a Hebrew toy that actually taught my kid the language. So I made one.
It started with a problem in our own home.
I'm Yifat — a speech therapist and a mom. When my son turned two, I went looking for a Hebrew toy that would actually help him learn the language. Not a flashcard set. Not a Hebrew-themed app. A real, hands-on toy designed around how toddlers actually pick up language.
I couldn't find one. So I built it.
I'm not just a parent. I'm a speech therapist.
I've spent over a decade as a speech-language pathologist working with kids learning first, second, and sometimes third languages. I know which methods stick — and which ones look productive but don't actually translate to recognition or speech.
Most Hebrew toys for toddlers are built by toy companies trying to enter the Jewish market. Speakyti is built by a clinician who already knows what works.
Built around how toddler brains actually learn.
Three principles drive every Speakyti product:
Multi-sensory input. Touch, sight, and sound at once. The bath letters work because your child is feeling the foam, seeing the shape on the wall, and hearing you say the letter — three pathways encoding the same memory.
Low-cognitive-load moments. Bath time. Bedtime. Five quiet minutes. That's when working memory has space to actually absorb something new.
Recognize before write. Letters are visual shapes before they're symbols you draw. The bath set teaches recognition. The wooden puzzle teaches the muscle memory of writing. Together they're a system, in the right order.
A full Hebrew-at-home system.
The bath set and the wooden puzzle are step 1 and step 2. We're already designing what comes next — a writing-prep workbook, a first-words set for sight reading, and seasonal Jewish-holiday extensions for Chanukah, Pesach, and Shabbat.
If you're a parent who wants Hebrew at home but doesn't know where to start: this is for you. Welcome to Speakyti.
