Let's debunk a popular speech myth: “Let’s wait and see…”

The start of a new year is often when families pause and hope things will improve on their own. And sometimes, progress does happen — but often, earlier support makes the journey easier.

💛 January is a great time to get started with speech therapy.
Evaluations and early intervention can help build skills, confidence, and clarity right from the beginning of the year!

If you’ve been wondering whether to move forward, this can be your sign.
We currently have January openings available and would love to support your child’s communication journey! Find our contact info above.

This year has been full of growth, connection, and meaningful milestones. We’re so grateful for our families, clients, and community who made it all possible!

Here are a few moments we’re proud of:
💛 Hired my first employee — welcome, Eiliana!
🎪 Participated in our first large marketing event as a vendor at the Escondido Grand Ave. Festival!
🎉 Hosted a family celebration marking 1 year of having a brick and mortar clinic to better serve our community!
🌱 Continued supporting children and families through thoughtful, individualized care!

As we look ahead, we’re excited to keep growing, learning, and building connections together. Thank you for being part of our journey!

Simple crafts can be powerful language-builders!
A paper plate + markers + scraps of paper = endless speech practice! It does not have to look as pretty as the picture you see! Kids love to color and glue!

Here are a few ways to build communication while creating your snowman:

✨ Label & describe:
“Circle, cold, soft, round, shiny, carrot nose.”

✨ Practice following directions:
“Put the hat on top.”
“Glue the eyes in the middle.”
“Add three buttons.”

✨ Target speech sounds naturally:
/ S / → snowman, scarf, silly, smile
/ K / → coat, cold, cookie
/ TH / → three, thick, thumbprints

✨ Encourage storytelling:
“Tell me about your snowman!”
“What’s their name?”
“What do they like to do in winter?”

Crafts are fun, hands-on opportunities for kids to practice vocabulary, sequencing, describing, and social communication. 💛 Tell me what other cute holiday crafts you enjoy doing with your kids!

Holiday get-togethers can be exciting!!! BUT they can also feel loud, busy, and unpredictable for many kids. A little practice ahead of time can help children feel more confident, understood, and connected.

In this carousel, you’ll find simple, supportive strategies to try:
- Practicing greetings
- Taking turns in conversation
- Understanding personal space
- Using “what to say when…” scripts

Most importantly: celebrate every brave step your child takes — social communication is a skill that grows with time, support, and connection. ❤️

Here are some easy baby signs that you can use with your little ones at home during mealtimes! They could also easily be used during playtime when wanting more blocks, being all done with play, wanting water, or if they’re getting hungry and want a snack/milk. Try them out and as always practice them lots and pause for them to respond. Always pair the word with the sign. Most importantly, don’t get discouraged if they don’t pick it up right away. Keep trying! FYI, I have been signing with my little one since she was 2-3 months old and she has yet to sign something to me!!! But, I keep trying, and you should too!

Here are Eiliana's and I's favorite winter favorites books for language!
Cozy winter stories are the perfect way to model new vocabulary, build comprehension, and spark conversation.

📘 Bear Stays Up for Christmas
Great for: describing emotions + problem solving
Try modeling: tired, cozy, surprise, waiting, helping, excited
Ask: “Why do you think Bear struggled to stay awake?”

📗 Little Blue Truck’s Christmas
Great for: counting + repetition + seasonal vocabulary
Try modeling: jingle, bright, quiet, snowy, lights, friends
Ask: “Which animal would you want to ride along with?”

A simple winter read-aloud = a meaningful language moment. Grab a warm blanket, some hot cocoa and watch the connection happen!

A scavenger hunt is an easy way to build speech and language naturally — no worksheets needed, just curiosity and play!

Create a list of winter items to find around the house or neighborhood, like:
✨ lights
❄️ mittens
☕ cocoa
🌿 wreath
🕯 candle
🎀 ribbon

Try practicing:
💬 naming the item
🧠 describing what it looks/feels/smells like
📦 putting it into a category
🗣 using the word in a sentence

Small language moments add up — and holiday magic makes it fun. 💛

Winter break is just around the corner and this is a fun and simple way to continue to build on your child's speech and language skills over the holiday break!

Describe-a-Snowman ⛄️

Draw, build, or imagine a snowman together. Take turns describing what it looks like using adjectives like:

- tall, sparkly, cold, silly, round

Add a challenge by comparing:
“My snowman is taller than yours!”
“Yours has a bigger hat!”

This simple winter activity supports:
- Vocabulary growth
- Comparing & contrasting
- Imagination
- Turn-taking

If you try it at home let me know how it goes and tag !
