This week in speech therapy, our theme was dinosaurs. The past few years I have done the same craft. (You can find it here.) But this year, I wanted to do something a little different. I try to change up the craft year to year to keep things fresh. Speech therapy ROCKED this week with… Continue reading Prehistoric Speech Therapy: A Dinosaur Craft

The SLP, March, Twitter and LinkedIn
This month I am continuing my SLP social media boost challenge by learning about two channels-Twitter and LinkedIn. To be honest, I have no clue about either one! If you follow me on either, you will probably notice that I am completely incompetent with Twitter and LinkedIn. If I share anything on Twitter, it is… Continue reading The SLP, March, Twitter and LinkedIn
Why Did I Name My Business “Speech Chick Therapy?”
So, I am sure you are wondering why on earth my business name is Speech Chick Therapy. It’s probably not keeping you up at night but, it may have crossed your mind. In my mind, it’s an obvious answer-I am a chick who does speech therapy. Like any other speech therapist, I was called the… Continue reading Why Did I Name My Business “Speech Chick Therapy?”
Using Coins To Grow Language
How much spare change do you have laying around at home? In jars, on top of the dryer, on the nightstand, maybe in the bathroom…you know you have it. Sometimes, it is not very much. Other times, it’s enough for a Dr. Pepper and vanilla ice cream cone at Sonic during Happy Hour…completely hypothetical! Why… Continue reading Using Coins To Grow Language
Speech Therapy Theme Review: Presidents and Money
During Presidents week, I modify my speech therapy lessons so that I can use {ALMOST} the same theme all week long. I connect presidents to money for my younger clients. For my older clients, we talk about presidents and money. The little ones don't quite understand elections, voting and Presidents. But they know what money… Continue reading Speech Therapy Theme Review: Presidents and Money
Easy Ideas for Using Valentine Cards from a Speech Pathologist
Every year, I always have leftover Valentine cards. There’s 20 kids in the class but the Valentine card companies package the cards in quantities of 32. I’m pretty sure it’s a conspiracy of some sort but I digress. Anyway, what should you do with those leftover cards? I have some ideas for you! That’s code… Continue reading Easy Ideas for Using Valentine Cards from a Speech Pathologist
Speech Therapy Themes: Valentine’s Day
This week, we are all about hearts, pink, red and love in speech therapy. I have a few different books that I use in speech therapy during this week. There are so many great ones out there so it’s hard to pick just one. I can’t pick just one activity to use either. I have… Continue reading Speech Therapy Themes: Valentine’s Day
Using Mailboxes in Speech Therapy
We’ve all seen those cute little mailboxes in the Target Dollar Spot or our favorite dollar store. I know I walked by them a couple of years ago, not sure what I could do with it. Don’t worry…before I checked out, I walked back to pick up 3 (or maybe 5!) These little mailboxes are… Continue reading Using Mailboxes in Speech Therapy
Use “Wreck this Journal” in Speech Therapy
My daughter bought a “Wreck this Journal” several months ago at a book store. I really did not know much about them. Then, she asked for another one for Christmas. So, I started looking at them. Man!!! How cool would these be to use in speech therapy?! Yes, even as a mother, I look at… Continue reading Use “Wreck this Journal” in Speech Therapy
SLP Tip: The New Way to Use Stamps
Instead of a parent tip this week, I chose an SLP tip to give out. Do you ever give a client a stamp and three days later it is still there? They've bathed but it won't come off. Or do you bring a blue stamp pad and the girls want pink? Maybe your stamp pad is… Continue reading SLP Tip: The New Way to Use Stamps
