“Will they grow out of it?”

It’s one of the most common questions parents ask.

While many speech errors are part of typical development, some children benefit from extra support. If you’re wondering whether your child’s speech is developing as expected, an assessment can provide clarity and peace of mind.

At Sweet Speech Therapy, we provide virtual assessments and therapy for children with speech sound disorders and stuttering.

💻 Serving Ontario, Prince Edward Island, plus English-language services in Quebec.

🧐 Did you know that the “s” sound can be produced in 2 different ways? While some people naturally place the tip of their tongue UP near the alveolar ridge (gums near the upper front teeth), others place their tongue tip DOWN on their lower gums/teeth.

Both are valid, as long as the air is coming down the centre of the tongue rather than the sides.

🗣️✨ How do we make 𝘃𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗹 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀? It all comes down to tongue position, lip shape, and vocal cord vibration!

👅 𝗧𝗼𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 & 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: Vowel sounds change depending on how high or low the tongue is in the mouth and whether it's more forward or back. For example, “ee” (as in see) is made with a high, forward tongue, while “aw” (as in saw) has a low, back tongue position.

👄 𝗟𝗶𝗽 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗲: Our lips also help shape certain vowels! Rounded lips create sounds like “o” (as in go) or “oo” (as in moon), while unrounded lips give us sounds like “ee” and “a” (as in cat).

🎤 𝗩𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗢𝗻! Unlike some consonants, all vowels are voiced, meaning our vocal cords vibrate to create sound.

🔍 𝗩𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗹 𝗘𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗿𝘀? If a child has unclear vowels or frequently substitutes one vowel for another, it could indicate difficulty with motor planning for speech. Speech therapy can help build accuracy and confidence!

🌟 How to Support Your Child When They Stutter 🌟

It can be tricky to know how to react when your child stutters. Here are three simple yet powerful strategies to help your child feel supported and confident while communicating:

1️⃣ Maintain Eye Contact: Stay calm and keep eye contact. This shows your child that you’re listening and not uncomfortable with their stutter.

2️⃣ Wait It Out: Resist the urge to interrupt or finish their words. Let them take their time and express themselves fully.

3️⃣ Focus on the Content: Pay attention to what your child is saying rather than how they are saying it. Acknowledge the message, not the stutter, and encourage them to keep sharing their thoughts!
Remember, it’s all about creating a safe and supportive environment for your child. 💕 If you have questions or need guidance, our team at Sweet Speech Therapy is here to help. Let’s work together to empower our kids to communicate confidently! 🌈
