✨ Puzzles + Speech Therapy = FUN Learning! 🧩🗣️

Did you know puzzles are more than just fun playtime?
In speech therapy, puzzles:

Act as token reinforcers – Each piece earned feels like a reward!

Elicit language – Kids naturally describe, request, and comment while building.

Boost problem-solving – Perfect for turn-taking and learning patience.

Make learning FUN!

Whether it’s asking for “the blue corner piece” or proudly saying “I did it!”, puzzles encourage meaningful communication while keeping kids motivated and engaged.

What’s your child’s favorite puzzle theme? 🐻🚀🍎

🎉 Happy National Speech Pathology Day! 🗣️❤️

Today, we celebrate the amazing field of speech-language pathology—and more importantly, the incredible therapists who show up each and every day for children.

At Language Lions Speech Therapy, being a speech pathologist isn’t just a job—it’s a calling. We love what we do because we get to help children find their voices, build confidence, and reach their full potential. Whether it's mastering a new sound, saying a first word, or expressing a big feeling—we cheer for every milestone, big or small.

Thank you to our amazing families for trusting us, and to our little clients who inspire us daily. 💬💛

If you’re looking for a place where your child will be supported, celebrated, and encouraged every step of the way—we’d love to welcome you to our family.

Five years ago, I walked away from the security of a job, armed with nothing but a dream, a prayer, and the hope that I could build something meaningful—something that would not only support my family but also make a real difference.

The journey wasn’t easy. I took countless classes, learned from amazing mentors, and, most importantly, trusted that God had a plan. There were moments of doubt, but faith and perseverance kept me moving forward.

Looking back, I can’t help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude. This business is more than a career; it’s my calling. Every day, I get to help children grow, learn, and discover their potential. That alone makes every risk, every long night, and every challenge worth it.

To my family, friends, my mentors, my team, and everyone who has supported this journey—thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your belief in me kept me going, and your support has made this dream a reality.

Here’s to the next five years and beyond! 💙

Happy Saturday, friends & family!

We have been doing a lot of screeners at daycares & it I wanted to share some developmental norms for children ages 1-3. We are SO passionate about early intervention & can truly help give you child a solid foundation if intervention is warranted.

“What should my child be doing at 12 months??” This is a question I get asked ALL the time! I get it, developmental milestones aren’t exactly a subject taught in high school like math or science. I’m here to help YOU!

This can be a big subject, so I’ll break it down for you, according to the ASHA (American Speech-Language Hearing Association):

By 12 months, your child should:

-Reach for objects with their hands (bottle, pacifier, favorite toy)
-Point at objects, wave at people or things, and show, or give objects
-Copy you when you engage in social interactions (waving, blowing kisses, peek-a-boo)
-Begin playing those social games as listed above
-Try to copy sounds that others in the home make, especially primary caregivers like Mom and Dad
-Enjoy dancing
-Respond to simple words and phrases like “go bye-bye” and “Look at Mommy”
-Say one or two word phrases (mama, daddy, want that)

(Source/more info: https://www.asha.org/public/developmental-milestones/communication-milestones-birth-to-1-year/ )

Does this sound like your little one?

If not, or if you have concerns about delays in these areas, reach out to us by email/phone.

**Look for developmental norms for ages 2-3 tomorrow!

These communication (hearing, speech, and language) milestones are for children birth to age 1.
