The development of communication follows a predictable sequence by developing new skills and building upon previously acquired ones for children.

There is an expectation for language and speech to progress over time demonstrating certain milestones by a specific age.

It is important to note that children generally develop these skills at their own pace.

⚠️ The “R” sound has a reputation for being the trickiest sound to master!

⚠️ That’s because there’s so many ways to produce it

Ways to facilitate appropriate tongue placement for /r/ include teaching:

👉🏼Awareness of where the tongue, lips, soft palate, and teeth meet to make sounds
👉🏼 Jaw stability & coordination and strengthening exercises of the tongue
👉🏼Visual and tactile cues
👉🏼Slowly increasing intensity and complexity using drills

✅ Nasal breathing is important for cardiovascular health, oral health, and sleep quality.

✅ Proper lip seal is a result of nasal breathing and can decrease risks of gum disease and cavities.

✅ The entire tongue should be suctioned to the roof of the mouth at rest.

✅ Some swallow patterns, such as tongue thrust, can lead to bloating, acid reflux, and speech sound errors.

👉🏼Where does your tongue sit when your mouth is closed?
👉🏼Do you find yourself mouth breathing during the day or at night?

Pair with a picture exchange system for kids with limited verbal communication 👄 (Research shows that using picture symbols, such as PECS, can increase verbal communication).

⚠️ A reminder that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Sometimes simple is better.
