Sometimes we have to get creative with tricky words 👏🏼 For this child, the /r/ in the middle of “girl” was getting lost, so the word was sounding more like “guhl” By slowing it down and exaggerating that middle /r/ sound, we’re making sure he actually produces it: “grrrr + rl” → “girl” Once we establish that missing sound, we can gradually speed the word back up until it sounds natural. Sometimes in speech therapy, we have to make a word sound a little exaggerated before we can make it sound just right! 🗣️ #speechtherapy #speechtherapist #slp #articulation #rsound

Why I Don’t Say “Say…” 👉🏼 Prompting your child to “say” a word may encourage repetition, but it doesn’t teach the meaning or function of language. For children to communicate, they need to understand what words mean and how to use them before they can say them independently. ⭐️ Let’s meet children where they are developmentally and build their understanding of language, rather than telling them to repeat after you. Communication is more than just talking! 🥰 Instead of “say ___,” try this: 👍🏼 If your child isn’t using words yet and cries or screams for a snack, model a gesture like pointing or reaching. 👍🏼 If your child points or reaches and knows a few words, give them the word and reinforce their attempt. 👍🏼 If your child says a word, repeat it back to them to reinforce their efforts. ⭐️ Save this post for later and follow for more speech tips and tricks! #intownspeechtherapy #speechtherapy

At 3 years old, we’re working on using language for different purposes, like requesting, commenting, describing, and sharing ideas. Instead of constantly asking, “What do you want?” or “What is that?” I’m modeling phrases she can use and expanding on what she already says. Why? Because children need to HEAR how to put words together before they can start using those sentences independently! Try this at home! Follow your child’s lead, add a few words to what they say, and give them time to respond. 🏡 #SpeechTherapy #ExpressiveLanguage #SpeechTherapyTips #ToddlerLanguage #intownspeechtherapy

This is what speech therapy can look like for an 18-month-old 👶 We’re creating opportunities to communicate through play. By offering choices, he hears the word, attempts to say it, and learns that words have power. When communication helps him get what he wants, he’s more motivated to use it again! This is one of the ways we help toddlers build their first words and understand that communication is meaningful. ✨ #SpeechTherapy #ToddlerSpeech #FirstWords #SpeechLanguagePathologist #intownspeechtherapy
