Vision is so much more than acuity. I have some experience with these topics in this post with my own child, but always craving more knowledge around it. I found this fascinating because I went back to it a few times…I found 1 then later 2...edited to add 4! So curious what others 👀 see.

How many letter "y's" do you see? This is a visual figure ground, visual discrimination, visual scanning task. These vision skills are used all day in various scenarios. From finding your matching socks to scanning for the car keys...

Did you find all of the y's?

✨Is your gut telling you that something is off with your young child's speech development?

✨It can be hard to know if speech is on track for our children when they are just starting to communicate.

✨We all have our worries and as a parent there have always been times that I wished I had trusted my gut and reached out for more support.

✨It can also feel hard to find someone to talk to about concerns when we have to go through so many hoops to even talk to a live person these days. I offer free phone consultations without any chatbots trying to answer your questions first!
