🍂 Fall is just around the corner and it’s the perfect season to cozy up with books that spark language, imagination, and connection. As SLPs, we love to use books to build language, working story retelling, begin identifying sounds in words, and introduce new concepts!

Curious how books can boost your child’s speech and language skills? DM us to get started!

Did you know that one of the most powerful tools for supporting language is simply waiting?

When we give children extra time to think, process, and respond, we’re reducing pressure and frustration while encouraging independence and fostering confidence.

Next time you ask a question or model a word, pause and wait! You might be surprised at what your child shares when given that little bit of extra time!

Need additional support for your child’s communication skills? We offer FREE screenings at the clinic and are here to help!

Looking for playful ways to boost your child’s communication? Frankie’s Food Truck Fiasco by is a great game that supports your child’s development!

Throughout the game, your child can work on taking turns, using descriptive language (“I need a square piece of cheese”), categorizing foods, and building early problem-solving skills! This is a favorite for our speech therapy sessions at the clinic!

Want to know if your child could benefit from speech therapy? Ask us about our FREE speech screenings or call today to schedule your appointment! Our team is here to help!

✨ Auditory processing is about how the brain makes sense of the sounds we hear and how messages are understood.

A child with auditory processing challenges might:
🔹 Ask for repetition often (“What?”)
🔹 Mix up directions
🔹 Struggle in noisy places
🔹 Seem like they’re not listening (even when they’re trying!)

As speech-language pathologists, our team can support your child in developing listening skills that will help them be successful at home, in school, and with friends.

Concerned about your child’s listening skills and/or ability to consistently follow directions? Call our team today! Through our FREE screenings, we can identify your child’s strengths and help you understand their needs.

🗣️ Verbal routines are a great way to help your little one learn to communicate by making language predictable, meaningful, and fun!

Simple phrases like “ready, set, go” create structure and repetition, which support your child’s ability to learn and use language.

In speech therapy, we use verbal routines to build understanding, increase participation, and encourage first words. Looking for additional support for building your child’s communication skills? Reach out to us today and schedule your FREE screening!

🧁 Shape sorting cupcakes from is a client favorite and toy you can use at home to support your child’s development!

As your child matches each cupcake, they are:
🧁 Learning shapes and colors
🧁 Practicing fine motor coordination
🧁 Building strength
🧁 Developing visual discrimination skills

You can even add pretend play—like “baking” or running a cupcake shop—for even more language and social development opportunities!
