Background: Child development is a form of continuous and natural stages, therefore each aspect that is developed influences each other. One aspect of development that greatly influences children is language development, both receptively (understanding) and expressively (expression).

The article search will be conducted for a maximum of 2 months. Instrument: Research data is searched from databases, including: PubMed and Google Scholar. Results: By using the search keywords "early language intervention" AND "clp" AND "observational". Conclusion: The storytelling method has been proven effective and significant in improving the language skills of early childhood, especially in the aspects of expressive language, vocabulary, and oral communication.
