Graduation day for this playful 17-month-old!
Watching their receptive and expressive language grow has been such a joy. So proud of this big milestone! Did you know that we started working with this particular kiddo at 10 months old?! That’s not too early to start services so if you’ve been on the fence if your little one needs therapy, contact us today for a free consult! 🎓👶

I don’t offer advocacy services at my private practice but does! I love displaying her brochures in my waiting room area so that families we service at BBST can have options, especially if struggling with school services. We both have been school SLPs for several years so we get it! Reach out if you have any questions!

Thankful that He rose from the grave so that I may have eternal life! A personal update from my family… Elise got a helmet almost 2 months ago, time has flown by… it was really hard for me but I’m thankful that she has taken well to it and is making progress! Hopefully only 2 more months to go! ✝️

Spring is the perfect time to build language skills during outdoor play. Nature walks are full of opportunities to model new vocabulary, expand your child’s words, and encourage conversation.

Try labeling what you see, expanding your child’s words into longer phrases, and asking simple questions during your walk. I'm actively doing this when I talk walks with my 1-year old!! (aghhh, still can't believe she's 1 now).

Little moments like these help language grow naturally.

💛 Save this for your next nature walk!

Can you believe that it's already spring?? I sure can't. This week will be starting spring activities for your kiddo.

Scatter paper flowers on the table and place a small bowl in the center to be your garden basket. Each flower can have a speech task such as answering a WH-question, repeating a target word, or practicing a speech sound.

Take turns flipping flowers and completing each task before adding it to the garden.

Along the way, encourage turn-taking language like:
• “My turn!”
• “Your turn!”
• “Can I go next?”

This simple activity can target articulation, language, and social communication while keeping learning playful.

🌼 Keep playing until your garden is full!

I was so proud of this kiddo as she tackled the CVCV word “honey”! I love working on as many trials as possible for speech sound kiddos with an abacus. They get the feel of sliding something across with their fingers, it’s colorful, and portable to take with me when I’m going from daycare, to private school, and then back to the office! Of course you can’t forget one of my go to therapy materials are these Bjorem speech sounds cue cards. My deck is well used and loved! Speechies what are some of your favorite tools!

Reading together is one of the best ways to build speech, language, and connection. Even a few minutes of shared reading can help children practice vocabulary, comprehension, and social communication.

This month we're loving these books for targeting:
- early language
- sequencing
- WH- questions
- descriptive language
- perspective-taking

Swipe through for ideas on how to use each book during storytime!

💛 You can find all of these books in our Amazon reading list — linked in our bio.

Here's our 2nd St. Patty's day activity for the week! Looking for a fun way to practice speech sounds at home? Try this one if you have kiddos working on speech sounds.

1. Cut out paper shamrocks and write your child’s target sounds or words on each one.
2. As your child picks a clover, have them say the word 3–5 times before tossing it into a bowl or “pot of gold.”

This playful activity encourages repetition, movement, and motivation—three key ingredients for articulation practice.

You can also try:
- hiding the shamrocks for a “lucky word hunt”
- taping them to the wall and practicing each one
- sorting them by speech sound

👉 Save this for your next speech practice day!

St. Patty's day is coming up and this week I'll be sharing some fun activities you can try at home with your little one! This first activity helps children practice sequencing, storytelling, and expressive language.

Using paper shamrocks, write steps for catching a leprechaun and mix them up. Work together to put the steps in order using transition words like first, next, then, and last.

Once the steps are in order, challenge your child to retell the plan without looking at the shamrocks.

Playful activities like this help strengthen language skills while keeping learning fun.

💛 Save this for your St. Patrick’s Day speech activity!

Here's another FAQ that we get asked all the time! “What should I practice at home, and how often?”

Short, consistent practice works best. Aim for 5–10 minutes a day, built into everyday routines like playtime, reading, meals, or even car rides.

Focus on your child’s specific goals! Whether that’s sounds, words, or social skills and keep practice fun and pressure-free. Therapy doesn’t need to feel like homework.

💡 Parent tip: If you’re ever unsure what to work on at home, ask your therapist! We’re always happy to share simple ideas that fit your family’s routine.

Little moments, practiced often, truly make a big difference. 💛

As we wrap up February, I have 1 more Valentine themed activity!

Try practicing words like:
💗 sweet
💗 share
💗 kind
💗 hug
💗 love
💗 help

Here are a few simple ways to use them throughout the day:
- Act out each word together
- Ask your child to use the word in a sentence
- Talk about times they’ve seen or shown each word

You don’t need extra materials, just slow down, model language, and follow your child’s lead. 💛 Remember that everyday moments are full of opportunities to grow language, especially during Valentine’s season. I love this month!

👉 Save this for February or anytime you want to build emotional vocabulary through play.
