Besides fluency, confidence, and grammatical skills, another thing that plays an important role in making your child an effective communicator is the tone of voice. How they use their voice modulation to convey their thoughts, ideas, and opinions to the public says a lot about their communication skills. That is why we have included understanding the tone of voice for kids in our public speaking curriculum.

In everyday scenarios, we come across various instances where people use their voice and the tone of their voice to strongly communicate their emotions and the intent behind their words. Here are some examples that will make you understand the importance of tone of voice for kids: 

• When a person is sad, they use a very low tone of voice where there is no energy or enthusiasm, and their voice makes it clear that they are not happy and even depressed at the time. Even though their words might not show the same, their voice and body language may depict otherwise.

• When our prime minister is giving a speech and addressing the nation, they use a very strong and loud voice which shows confidence and strong communication skills because they have the responsibility to lead the nation. Their confidence can be rightly seen and felt in their tone of voice.

• When a parent is angry with their kid, they also show their anger by using a strict tone which indicates anger to their child and makes them act right.

These are some examples that we come across in our day-to-day life where the importance of tone of voice can be seen. Now, if the speaker was using a different tone in either of the scenarios, it would have been difficult to understand what they were feeling and trying to imply.

That is why when your kids learn public speaking, they not only need to learn the right words to say but the right way to say them by using their tone of voice to depict clearly what they want to imply and how they feel. The tone of the voice and the words being said should complement each other so that the listeners get the right message along with the intent of the message.
