Speech development red flags to watch out for:

🚩Difficulty pronouncing words
🚩Limited vocabulary for age
🚩Trouble understanding or following directions
🚩Frustration when communicating with others

Early intervention is key! 🗣️ If you notice any of these signs, it might be time to seek support.

Remember, every child progresses at their own pace, but don’t hesitate to reach out for guidance! 💬

Have you ever wondered when your child should be able to produce specific speech sounds?

🌟This is one of my favorite visuals to show parents! This chart is based on 15 different speech acquisition studies showing the average age children learn to pronounce English consonants correctly. Early intervention is key!

McLeod, S. & Crowe, K. (2018). Children’s consonant acquisition in 27 languages: A cross-linguistic review. American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology. doi:10.1044/2018_AJSLP-17-0100.

🛑 Safety first, always! The 90-90-90 seating position is key to keeping kids safe and confident while eating—ensuring they sit upright to allow them to focus on moving the food in their mouth and not on body positioning. This supports safe swallowing, adventurous eating, volume of intake, increased seating duration at mealtime and reduced risk of choking. Little adjustments, big protection! 🍴👶

🛑 When choosing a highchair it’s key to look for:
1. Upright seat
2. Adjustable footrest
3. Ideal positioning for the whole body (90-90-90)
4. Stability and security ensuring minimal risk for falls
5. Removable tray
6. Ability to grow with your child

🛑 Already have a highchair or booster seat? Consider modifying your existing seat with a tool you might already have in your home! Achieving optimal positioning (90-90-90) will help better support your child during mealtimes.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from my family to yours! 🎄🎅

“Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes. Silver-white winters that melt into springs. These are a few of my favorite things.” 🎶☃️❄️🎄

❄️ These products are some of my most used (and loved) to support goal achievement across ages and stages for speech, feeding and myofunctional therapy!

Note: This is not an exhaustive list, these products are not “one size fits all” and does not replace individualized recommendations and therapeutic intervention provided by a skilled therapist. There are times where I will use or recommend other products not seen dependent on client/family needs and goals.

🍽️ Thanksgiving with picky eaters? Here are some mealtime tips to make the holiday more enjoyable for everyone:

1️⃣ Offer a variety of options – Let them explore new foods at their own pace!
2️⃣ Get creative with presentation – Fun shapes or colorful plates can spark interest!
3️⃣ Keep the pressure off – Encourage without forcing; let them feel in control.
4️⃣ Involve them – Let little hands help with simple tasks like setting the table or stirring!
5️⃣ Keep familiar favorites – Include a few go-to dishes they love to balance out new flavors.

Remember, it’s all about making the experience positive and stress-free! 🦃🍂
