Egg shakers might look like a simple toy… but they can target SO many speech and language goals!
🥚 Sensory toy – great for regulation and engagement
🥚 Counting syllables – shake once for each beat in a word (e.g., di-no-saur)
🥚 Bowling game – roll the egg and say a word before knocking something down
🥚 Hiding eggs – practise prepositions (in, under, behind, next to)
🥚 Concepts – fast/slow, near/far, first/last
🥚 Following directions – “shake before you pass it”, “jump after you shake it”
🥚 Verbs – shake, roll, throw, hide, find
🥚 Turn-taking – wait, watch, then take your turn
✨ Simple toys = powerful therapy tools.
