My three year old struggled so much with many, many sounds. He used few consonant sounds and stuttered terribly as he searched for ways to convey his thoughts - it was very painful to watch him struggle and then give up in exasperation. But within just a few days of starting a handful of your strategies, he mastered /k/ & /g/, then /s/ & /z/, and then /l/ sounds as well. He has come such a long way and is no longer stuttering. Thank you so much for your videos! They have been invaluable to our little guy and our family in general.

New subscriber! We're doing OT and SLP with my 2 year old who isn't speaking. She's made some progress in the last 6 months but this has been an EXCELLENT resource to have on top of that. It helps to hear things more than once since a therapy session feels like it flies by with more info than I can absorb. Thank you for what you're doing here!

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for the comment! This is exactly what I do this for so thank you for saying that!! I’m so happy it helps! (I worked early intervention for years in home therapy & thought the same exact thing!)

Thanks a lot for your tips! I'm glad I found you:)

I’m also worried as an SLP! Your videos are amazing 😻

I am a licensed SLPA, recently graduated in 2020 now working in home health and teletherapy with minimal support systems (due to the environment and lack of exposure to other practicing colleagues). I love watching your videos to gain techniques and strategies to use during therapy sessions. I am curious about how to decide if an activity is too difficult for a child, or if they simply are uninterested? I have some kids that I will allow to choose an activity and they will open it and run away, then come back and grab something else and run away... at which point I find most of my session trying to keep the child in one place. When do we decide that an activity is too complex? How do you scaffold up and down depending on the child? For example, I have an egg cart that the eggs open and close with different colors inside. I use this to gain joint attention, parallel play, parallel talk, and attempting sorting/matching colors. How can I use this in different ways, scaffolding up and down?

Wow... Just wow 😮 I can't wait to do these with my son 💞

You have a wonderful, vibrant energy level and an intoxicating smile. No wonder you became a speech therapist, because you are made for it! Thank you for all the great tips and video's! They are a life saver for my son!

@@TheSpeechScoop i actually have 3 ideas haha. 1. can you make a video on how speech delay effects social skills and eye contact, and how to improve these skills like social interactions with other children or adults. from my experience people doesn't know the diffrence between autism and speech delay. 2 , how to make a child listen when outside? they become more distracted of course and i can't bribe all the time. if you have any tips? 3. my daughter is 4 years old and she can speak 3-5 words sentences, but we are stuck at i want this, or i want to go to, or asks where is the pig? when she wants to have a conversation. beacuse as her mom i know she means the pig in moana movie. but some people might think thats randomly. how can i build here sentences, so we can have discussions. she doesnt answer questions yes , she says i want that. but she can say no. should i read more? can you link som books? or do you have fun games or acticivties i can do? i live in sweden and all they say is " reed more books.... like really"? you make it feel like nothing is impossible and that it will be ok, it just takes time. you make me smile and laugh with you whenever i look at your videos. you make us parents who feel lost feel hope again! so thank thank thank

@TheSpeechScoop

3 жыл бұрын

Hey Megan! Great question, this happens a lot. There are a couple of options. I have a little friend right now who I see teletherapy and she has difficulty attending to the screen as well, but she loves LOL dolls so I usually have her bring several LOL dolls to the session and I pull up articulation boom cards that can go by very quickly and in another screen I will pull up in LOL maker game where you get to change the color and outfits of an LOL and we work on trying to make the LOL match her LOL and it usually takes the entire session because we do five words and then I switch back to the only preferred thing she wants to do, or I let her watch 20 seconds of a clip on KZread of whatever she wants, still using a first/then model. That USUALLY solves the problem, incorporating real toys into the sessions - or they’re favorite things ever!! Find out what toys both YOU & the kiddo have! Then plan a session around that! Bubbles, blocks, little people, etc! The other option would to be spend that time teaching the mom hand cues and having her pretend model them with you and then playing with a child and doing a couple of trials that way - via mom. So that the child doesn’t even necessarily have to interact with the screen - more of you’re just teaching Mom to be the therapist. But usually it’s best if you can just REALLY narrow down to their favorite thing in the entire world - one of my kids ONLY like Pokémon........ so I spend a lot of time each week finding or making Pokémon themed resources so I can use them each week so he will be excited & participate! Some kiddos are easy & will play with anything, as you know, but other kids really need specific interests, or real toys incorporated at least at first!

I always thinks it's best to keep it exciting, short and sweet! try short, 20 minutes sessions, 3-5 times per day!! :) That way you are really working/playing/energetic during that time and they are very responsive! We don't want to drag it out until it's boring and your child is over it... so short and sweet wins the race in this example! :) Thank you for watching!

Hello Ma'am, how about for 24 months old? Im struggling to get his attention to play with me. What can i do? :(

How I can help my baby is 7yrs but the response is bad

Hi, Very useful information. Liked the vedio series. My son produces almost all sounds except the complicated sounds like R and L. He is 3. But he is not able to combine sounds to make a word. He can identify almost many things and says it by pointing along with producing first letter of the word. Can you please create a vedio on strategy to build or say word. Thanks in advance.

Hi Elli, 👍 He can say appa for apple ..since he cannot say l, he just don't say it. Same way many words. And for banana he says only ba ... eventhough he can say na seperately , he is not able to combine and make a word as banana. Says ye for red ... sometimes yed, and ye for yellow. So both i can hear as ye. Fi for fish. Wa for watermelon. He can identify object. But combining sounds is issue. Also my question is what are some list of standard or common word if we teach them, they can tell almost all words.

The first activity really worked for my son..first time i did that he copied me immediately..

Hi, my toddler is 20 months old. She likes and spends a lot of time lying down and just thumb sucking with her blanket. Other than that she was used to watch long hours of video clips and nursery rhymes the whole day. I cut the videos down to 2hrs/day now. And I'm working with her attention span to get her to speak. Can you suggest any toys/activities that would drag her out her bed? She likes sensory toys but I can't get her look at me if we have too loud toys.

what if he speaks and we plays at home and we practice all of this at home. But his school is telling me he won't speak unless it's one on one . Is this my problem normal or common? I'm worried his school is not doing what they should be to help him learn. He is only 2 1/2 3 in a month . Currently in pre school. They told me he doesn't play with kids but plays alongside them. But I've seen him paying with kids in school and when I take him to the park as well. Just confused on what todo.

@TheSpeechScoop

Ай бұрын

This is common. He plays with people he trusts. You won’t grab his toys away or hit and run, but other kids will. He still has plenty of time. Sharing isn’t innate, it has to be taught by trusted individuals, Which you’re doing! It might also depend on his language skills. Can he independently say “no, mine!” When a child grabs his toy? Or “it’s my turn!” This may also play a factor into choosing parallel play vs collaborative play, along w play skill level such as literal and functional play vs pretend play. I wouldn’t worry too much ❤️ he’ll get there if he’s not already!

Me again! What happens when your LO wants to hold whatever toy, and you say no, and they get mad, and don't wanna play? You're supposed to be in control. I try, but give in 😢

What about kids who won’t imitate that much? I say “ say milk” and the kid refuses or doesn’t feel like it. Basically he imitates very little. Or I’ll say uh oh and it’s a hit or miss if he repeats back.

If child doesn't even understand ur instructions....then
