🗣️ We’re feline good about building language skills!
💬 Purr-acticing those /p/ and /m/ sounds — purr, meow, paw!
📚 Helping kiddos find the purr-fect words to express themselves.
🐾 Every “meow-ment” counts when it comes to communication!

🐝 OT Edition:
✋ Fine motor? Claw-some! Let’s paw-actice with clothespins or tweezers!
🎨 Crafting, coloring, and cat-ching those sensory skills!
😺 We’re not kitten around — these paws work hard!

😸 Because therapy doesn’t have to be cat-astrophic — it can be paws-itively purr-fect! 🐾💛

🎃👻 Spooky Season = Skill-Building Season!

Halloween fun isn’t just about costumes and candy — it’s full of speech and OT opportunities! 🍬✨

🧡 OT fun:
Carving pumpkins helps build hand strength, coordination, and sensory exploration — especially when scooping out those gooey seeds! (Just remember to keep it safe — kids can help with scooping, drawing faces, or using plastic carving tools instead of sharp knives.)

After trick-or-treating, sorting candy by type, size, or color is another great way to work on fine motor skills, visual scanning, and categorizing!

💬 Speech fun:
Pointing out Halloween decorations while walking or driving around is a great way to practice describing words (“spooky,” “sparkly,” “silly”) and making connections.

Candy sorting can also build language skills — try labeling, comparing (“This one is bigger!”), and counting treats together.

👂 Listening for rhyming Halloween words or practicing themed vocabulary like “bat,” “ghost,” or “pumpkin” makes learning feel like play!

So this October, let’s turn every spooky moment into a chance to grow skills and confidence. 🕸🦇

Building confidence starts with letting kids take the lead!

At Bee's Knees Speech Therapy, we believe every child shines brightest when therapy feels like play—not work. Through child-led sessions, children explore, express, and learn at their own pace, making speech goals feel like fun milestones instead of chores.

Why does this work? Because when kids pick the activities, they feel safe and eager to communicate. That joy lifts their confidence, turning small wins into big leaps.

Parents, have you noticed how your little one’s confidence grows when they’re truly in charge? Share your stories or questions below—we’re here to cheer every step of the way!

Want to know the secret to keeping kids eager in speech therapy? It’s all about play setups that inspire curiosity and happiness!

When therapy feels like play, kids open up, try new sounds, and gain confidence — all while enjoying themselves. Whether it’s a favorite game, imaginative storytelling, or hands-on activities, these fun moments make every session feel like an adventure.

What’s your child’s favorite game during therapy? Share below! Let’s celebrate the power of play in helping our little ones find their voice.

Today is National Techie Day! Did you know that AAC tools are heroes in speech therapy?

AAC helps children express themselves when speaking is hard. From picture boards to speech devices, these tools open the door to communication and connection.

At Bee's Knees Speech Therapy, we use fun, play-based methods to introduce AAC, making therapy a joyful journey.

Parents: Have you tried any AAC tools with your child? What has been your favorite success? Share your story!

Let's celebrate every voice and every big step. Every child deserves to be heard!

Today is Homemade Cookie Day! But did you know baking cookies is a clever way to support your child’s occupational therapy skills?

Mixing, pouring, and decorating cookies help develop fine motor skills that assist with writing, buttoning, and even feeding.

Talking about ingredients and steps also supports language growth and following directions. A win for everyone!

Ready to make cookie time a fun way to build skills? What’s your child’s favorite cookie to bake? Share below!

🌩💛 Stormy days can feel big and loud for little ones. If your kiddo gets nervous when the thunder rumbles, try:

✨ Building a cozy fort with blankets and pillows
✨ Playing calming music or singing together
✨ Practicing deep “smell the flower, blow the candle” breaths
✨ Reading a favorite story in a snuggly spot

You’re not just calming nerves—you’re also modeling self-regulation skills that will help them long after the storm passes. 🌈

How does your family ride out storms together? ⛈💛
