Bluey helped us today in the clinic! We practised using lip rounding movements in words - push, wash, share, swim. Lots of repetition in filling up the bin then tipping the food into the garage truck!

These mini animals are great to help produce high word practices in our speech sessions. There's 20 pieces, which I mix in a bag. Then we pull them out one at a time as we say our target words and gradually build the individual puzzles.
Yesterday our was target 'g' - so every time we looked in the bag we used our 'fingers' and then talked about where the piece would 'go'. Then maybe would the animal prefer to eat 'yogurt' or a 'burger', or maybe play with 'lego' !

target words - finger, go, yogurt, burger, lego.

My childcare newsletter for August focuses on some simple strategies to help expand your child's vocabulary. This can include both the names of things (eg a tiger) as well as a child's knowledge about the thing (eg. it lives in the jungle or the zoo, it has stripes, claws and a long tail, it likes to hunt at night). Being able to describe things, is crucial for learning to tell stories and explain your thoughts in more detail. The research also shows that their are strong links to the size of a child's vocabulary when they start school, to how well they will do academically and with reading in the future.

The sticky animals have taken over the walls this week! They are just a bit different, so it helps with motivation and engagement in therapy sessions. How often are you allowed to stick something to the walls?! Great as a reinforcer when aiming for high trials in any type pf speech sessions.
