    Oh my goodness, please don’t stop making these sorts of videos! I feel so discouraged because my son just turned 16 months and isn’t talking and is stubborn with mimicking. Your enthusiasm and suggestions made me feel so much better ❤️

      Don’t worry!! Also, I am coming out with a free developmental speech chart very soon!!
      As long as he is meeting or working on prelinguistic skills, the sounds & words will come eventually! Hang in there!!

      I am hearing impaired. It helps to have slower speech for people like me as well as for nonnative English speakers (I have an English teaching certificate).

    My 5 year old son talks one word but it isn't consistent. He says "Nana" to banana but wouldn't always say that and follows instructions. But his object identification isn't that much. He does few gestures like High 5, hugh 10, and shake hands.
    Your video is sooo helpful.

    I was just recommended your channel and SO happy I found you!!! I Wish I had years ago! But never too late!! Your videos are by far the best speech videos that I have watched (and I've watched many) I love how fun and engaging your videos are. And I like that they are short and get straight to the point. Too many speech therapy videos ramble on and are too long, and waste your time, and aren't even helpful. By the time you get to the end you feel even more lost and confused than before! You are like a breath of fresh air!! And make what often feels overwhelming and a drag, fun, exciting and motivating! Love all if your examples, demonstrations and ideas. THANK YOU!!! 🙏👏🧡🧡🧡🧡

      I like to target “ch” first and explain the tongue movement - however, what other sounds have they not quite mastered? S, z, dj?

  • @kierstennorthcraft1411
    @kierstennorthcraft1411 3 роки тому +2

    My 18.5 month old can imitate gross motor, fine motor, gestures, and signs. He LOVES signing “again”. But absolutely NO imitation of sounds. No sounds really at all. He actually has a finger sucking habit that I believe has held him back and we were turned down for early intervention because his receptive communication and everything else was fine. I would really appreciate your thoughts. Mom on a mission here. God Bless ❤️

      teachmetotalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/CHART-of-11-Skills-Toddlers-Master-Before-Words-Emerge-from-Laura-Mize-and-teachmetotalk.com_.pdf check out this chart & really try to think about which skills may not be MASTERED (meaning he does then completely by himself at least 90% of the time) and then target those skills - even if it’s a lower skill - because sometimes we see kids who skip around in developing skills and end up developing splinter higher level skills but they are missing some lower level course skills that later impact their ability to continue to climb up the developmental chart for speech and language so we have to go back to what someone consider “easier” skills & fill in those blanks because there is a reason they are usually developed in order! another idea, have you tried holding back his favorite snack to see if he will imitate any sign or sound in order to get the snack? I think I modeled this on my video of TEACHING FUNCTIONAL SPEECH WORDS, SIGNS & GESTURES VIDEO

    Hi there! New SLP practicing and I need some tips. So my kid can do some routine gestures (high-five, flying kiss, fist bump) however when I try to teach her a new sign, she would rather manipulate my hands to to do the movement rather than do it herself. I am stumped! :(

      My daughter will turn 3years in 4months. I feel so happy to share that she is doing really good now. She says sentences and everything else expected of her age. Try the show Ms Rachel. It really helped my daughter. It also helped me as a parent to learn helpful techniques to communicate with my child. I also noticed as she moved up from infant room to toddler room (18m+) in her daycare, she had an explosion of words.
