Hello Families!
Below is a link to some activities that you can do at home with your children to encourage their speech and languge development! You can always reach me via my email...stay safe and be well!
Other helpful suggestions:
- Sing songs and nursery rhymes
- Talk about objects - what they look like, how they feel, what they are used for, etc.
- Talk about where thing are in your home using position words (in, on, under, etc.)
- Read books that your child enjoys and engourage him/her to retell the story to you. As you are reading, ask simple 'wh' questions and help your child to respond verbally or through gestures.
- Play simple games to encourage your child to follow directions.
- Always encourage verbal responses that are compatible with your child's language abilities - single words, two word combinations, sentence. Model correct sound production and encourage imitation.
- Have your child help you with daily activities to work on sorting, sequencing (first, next, last), labeling, answering and asking questions, etc. Hands on activities are motivating and fun!!
