Here is another fun activity you can do to go along with book reading- choose a game or activity that you can play with your child that will help carry over some of the target words and sounds you all practiced together while reading! Here, we read a book about different occupations kids can have when they grow up and then afterwards we labeled and matched some of the people we saw within the book. We had so much fun with this activity, which was full of opportunities to use language! #betterhearingandspeechmonth #BHSM #earlylanguage #pediatricSLP #developmentalplay #playwithpurpose #learnthroughplay #shenandoahsoundstart #winchesterva #pediatrictherapy #speechtherapy #kidsptotspeech #soundstart #literacy #readtome #literacyandlanguage #languagelearning #getcreative (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPDRzc9M6G_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Brown Bear Reading a book is so much more than just reading the words on the pages! There is a ton that can be added to story time such as labeling the pictures, talking about what is happening, answering questions, and expanding your child’s words and phrases, just to name a few. Check out what you can do with a simple book such as the classic “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?” by Bill Martin, Jr. and illustrated by Eric Carle. Happy reading! #betterhearingandspeechmonth #BHSM #earlylanguage #pediatricSLP #developmentalplay #playwithpurpose #learnthroughplay #shenandoahsoundstart #winchesterva #pediatrictherapy #speechtherapy #kidsptotspeech #soundstart #literacy #readtome #literacyandlanguage #languagelearning #otptspeech (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/COy00vfMR0U/?igshid=esncok53v65t

May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! Did you know children learn best through play? You can use blocks to elicit all sorts of communication! When beginning to learn language, children often have an easier time imitating non-words. For example, take turns with your child building a big tower. Once the tower is built, you can model “ta-da!” Use these blocks to also model early prepositions while you are making the tower such as “look! it’s going up, up up.” Or knock the tower “down, down, down!” Get silly and pretend to use the blocks as a microphone to imitate the sounds of all the fun animals you see on each box. Model words like “hat” or “head” and pretend you all are astronauts going to the moon! The options for learning language through play are endless. So grab a toy and let’s get creative! #betterhearingandspeechmonth #BHSM #earlylanguage #pediatricSLP #developmentalplay #playwithpurpose #learnthroughplay #shenandoahsoundstart #speechtherapy #winchesterva #pediatrictherapy #kidsptotspeech #kidsspeechtherapy #shenandoahsoundstartva #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/COhAUrLMEzo/?igshid=pz5w2p6jnmcz
