Resource of the Day!
Match the face, name the feeling 😊😲😡

This activity - alongside our Speech Pathologists and parents doing plenty of commenting, labelling, and modelling of emotion words and facial expressions - has been a wonderful way to support our younger learners to identify and name a range of emotions.

Speech Pathologist Cassandra’s Book Reading Recommendation: PROPS 📖🐷🐺

Bringing books to life doesn’t have to be complicated. Find any animals or toys lying around the house that match the story and act it out as you read. Using simple props helps children stay engaged, understand the story, and join in with the language.

This can be especially helpful for children with attention difficulties who struggle to get through a book or story (such as those with ADD or Autism). By supporting their attention, comprehension, and interaction in a fun, meaningful way - we grow their love for book reading.

🗣️ From “Wion” to “Lion”! Mastering the /L/ Sound

Many children replace the /L/ sound with a /W/ - saying “wike” instead of “like” or “wemon” instead of “lemon”. This process is called gliding, and while it’s typical in younger children, it becomes no longer age-appropriate as they get older.

When gliding persists, it can affect how children perceive and produce sounds - skills that are crucial for reading and spelling development. Clear articulation helps children build phonological awareness, the ability to hear and identify sounds in words, which forms the foundation for literacy success.

At Speech & Growth, we make speech therapy fun and engaging! Using mirrors, visuals, and playful activities, we help children build confidence and clarity with every sound they learn. 💬✨

Lisps & Articulation Therapy 👅✨
Does your child push their tongue forward when saying sounds like “s” or “z”? This can make their speech sound unclear or “slushy.”

Some speech sound errors are not age-appropriate and can persist into adulthood without support - impacting their clarity, confidence, and communication.

At our clinic, we use visual supports, tongue placement cues, and mirror feedback to help children see and feel where their tongue should go for accurate sound production.

🌟 Early intervention makes all the difference!
Contact us to learn how we can help your child speak with confidence.
