🚨 Is your child’s vocabulary stuck? Let’s troubleshoot! 🚨

If a child isn’t adding new single words—even after consistent speech therapy or at-home practice—it might be time to take a closer look. 👀 This happens with late talkers all the time, and it doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong. It just means we may need to tweak our approach.

Here are a few questions to ask yourself:

✨ Are we expecting too much too soon? Sometimes time and consistency are the key ingredients.
✨ Are we trying to work on too many words at once? Less is more—start small!
✨ Is there too little practice (or maybe too much 😅)? Find the sweet spot where practice is fun and doable.
✨ Are the words just too hard right now? Pick ones that match your child’s current speech sounds.

💬 MOST late talkers learn to talk—and many autistic kids do too! 🧠 The process just takes time, patience, and the right support.

You’ve got this! 💪 And we’re here to help every step of the way 💕

🎉Slides aren’t just for fun—they’re for language building too! 🛝🗣️

Next time you’re at the playground, try these speech and language strategies while sliding:

✨ Core words: Say “go,” “stop,” “again,” and “up” to build early vocabulary.
🧠 Requesting: Encourage your child to say “slide please!” or use gestures/signs.
👀 Turn-taking: Practice social skills with “my turn” and “your turn.”
📣 Commenting: Model fun phrases like “Wheee!” “So fast!” “That was fun!”
🤸 Action words: Talk about climbing, sliding, running, waiting, etc.

Play is powerful—and language learning happens everywhere! 💬💕
