I love using everyday items in new ways during speech therapy sessions. The Boon Drying Rack is one of my favorite versatile tools:
• The top section is perfect for “hiding” cards, mini objects, or game pieces to make practice more engaging.
• The bottom tray works as a built-in holder for small pieces, keeping everything organized and within reach.

This simple setup creates opportunities for articulation drills, vocabulary practice, following directions, spatial concepts, and turn-taking—all through play.

I’m sharing how I use the Magnetic Create & Play from for a variety of speech and language activities.

This one kit includes:
• Make a Face
• Scavenger Hunt Bingo
• Free Play Boards
• Seek & Count
• Place the Magnet
• Four in a Row
• Puzzle Scramble
• Tic Tac Toe

Speech and language goals you can target with these activities:
• Articulation practice (hide speech cards under magnets or practice target words while playing)
• Vocabulary (labeling, describing, categorizing)
• MLU expansion (building longer phrases and sentences such as “Put the red magnet on top”)
• Spatial concepts (in, on, under, next to, between)
• Following directions (one-step and multi-step)
• Turn-taking and social language (waiting, commenting, asking questions)

Peek inside an /r/ carryover session! We’re targeting the /r/ sound beyond drills by pairing it with meaningful play. Using “surprise presents” and Little People characters with “R” names (Ruby, Arnie, etc.), we practice /r/ words and sentences in a fun birthday-themed context. 🥳🎈

🎯 Why this works:
– Kids get repeated practice of /r/ in natural speech
– The theme boosts motivation and attention
– Using characters with “R” names makes it easier to practice target sounds in a functional way

Turning everyday items into therapy gold! In this activity, I paired the Shark Bite game with the Boon Lawn Bottle Drying Rack from Amazon to create a fun ocean scene. The “seaweed” (drying rack) hides the shark game pieces! I also pair my Shark Bite game with cards and minis to feed the shark.

This simple setup lets me:
🎯 Target speech sounds with lots of practice opportunities
🗣️ Expand MLU (mean length of utterance) naturally through play
📍 Work on spatial concepts (in, on, under, behind, next to)
👂 Practice following directions in an engaging, hands-on way

As an SLP who travels for home visits, I’ve learned that less is more when it comes to packing my therapy bag. A minimalist bag keeps sessions focused, flexible, and easy to adapt to each child’s needs (plus it saves my back!).

Here’s what I pack and why:
✅ Notepad: Quick notes and parent coaching tips right on the spot.
✅ iPad: Digital activities, data collection, and easy access to online resources.
✅ Worksheets: For targeted skill practice and easy home carryover.
✅ Seek & Find books: Amazing for attention, vocabulary, describing, and following directions.
✅ cards: High-quality visuals for speech sound practice.
✅ carrier phrases resource: Supports language expansion in natural contexts.
✅ mini objects: Tiny but powerful tools for hands-on learning, speech sounds, and play-based activities.

Keeping my bag streamlined helps me focus on connection, play, and coaching families—the things that truly make therapy effective. 💛

Now that you’ve got your mystery bag 🎒—let’s put it into action! Here’s how to use it to boost early language skills ⬇️

💬 Ways to play:
• Name it: “It’s a spoon!”
• Sound it out: “Vroom vroom!” 🚗
• Action words: “Brush hair!”
• Simple choices: “Do you want sock or car?”
• Pretend play: Make up silly games with what you pull out

This activity is flexible, motivating, and naturally encourages toddlers to use words, gestures, and play to communicate. 🙌

SLPs, it’s an awesome parent coaching strategy. Parents, it’s fun, free, and perfect for everyday practice!

✨The mystery bag✨ is one of my favorite go-to tools for building language skills with toddlers—because you don’t need anything fancy! Just grab a bag and fill it with random household items (spoon, toy car, sock, brush… anything works!) 🎒

👉 Why it works:
• Builds curiosity and keeps little ones engaged
• Encourages imitation of sounds, words, and gestures
• Supports turn-taking and waiting skills
• Expands vocabulary in a fun, play-based way

SLPs, this is such an easy activity to model during parent coaching! Parents, you can try this today with things you already have at home. 🏡

Would you try this with your toddler? Drop a 💡 if you love simple language ideas!
