Toddler leaving sounds off word endings? [Working on final consonant deletion + speech therapy tips]

Practicing phonology should ALWAYS be fun! If your child isn't having fun during your at home phonology focused activities you should stop practicing and wait for professional support from a speech therapist. Speech therapists are experts in knowing when to push children to tackle their next phonological process and when it's better to wait. It's important that practice stay fun because children learn best when they are intrinsically motivated. You'll learn tips about working on initial consonant deletion and final consonant deletion at home. And remember, phonological processes are a natural part of speech development that typically go away as children's speech systems continue to grow.

What if they are 3.5 yo and only drop the ends of words when trying to speak fast? Very fast, trying to tell a story in 2 seconds, but ok when speaking normally? Is that something that resolves with age?

[@toddlertalk]

While I can't say anything with certainty without meeting your little one, it sounds like coaching them on their rate of speech (talking more slowly) would result in them not leaving the sounds off the ends of words. You might come up with your own term for talking slowly, such as "turtle talk," to cue them to talk more slowly when they are talking too fast. And if they aren't able to change how fast they are talking with your help, then I would recommend talking to your pediatrician.
