Before pencils come playground skills:
* Crossing the monkey bars (shoulder, core and hand strength for writing!)
* Balancing on one foot (core stability for sitting!)
* Catching a ball (visual tracking for reading!)
* Jumping on hopscotch path (bilateral coordination for reading and writing!)

The playground is the BEST classroom for school readiness!

🌟 200 productions… in ONE session! 🌟
Today, Ellie smashed through her target words using the complexity approach — and the progress is speaking for itself.

Why is this important? 📈
When it comes to speech sound therapy, dosage matters. The more correct productions a child gets in a session, the quicker those new sounds stick. It’s not just about practice — it’s about enough of the right kind of practice.

Ellie has gone from tricky targets to confident productions, and the change in her speech clarity has been incredible. 💬✨

Here’s to hard work, smart therapy, and celebrating every milestone! 🎉💪

Meet Maeve, my beautiful daughter who I am absolutely obsessed with 💜🩷

This week I knew the time had come to take action and address Maeve’s difficulty with her sounds. Despite having a Speech Therapist for a mum who continually models sounds to the point of annoyance here we are.
I knew I couldn’t put it off any longer. Gotta practice what you preach eh….🫠

It was a lovely reminder that speech and language development isn’t always linear, even in the most supportive environments. Every child moves at their own pace — and needing support doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong 💬

Now that I have assessed and completed an in depth phonetic and phonological speech analysis I have my plan. I have direction. I know what I have to do.

I don’t doubt that it will be difficult, especially as I am so close to her but that’s my job.

We are only on Day 1 of her Speech Sound journey but already I am so proud of her 🤗✨

Remember, the price of doing nothing often outweighs the cost of action… or something like that, I’m so tired 😭🤣

Back with this little superstar yesterday ✨ her smile says it all 🥰 After a few weeks away, it was pure joy to my heart to see Eleanor light up exploring our new room (and diving straight into the Peppa toys 🐷💖). She faces challenges many of us will never understand, but her spirit shines so brightly. I am so so incredibly proud of her, always 🌈💫
