It's January but it's also known as basketball season at my house. So I thought it would be fun to have basketball theme in my speech therapy sessions!

Winter Fun To Promote Language
Winter is cold. It's dreary. In the south, it takes way too long to get to spring! (Can you tell I don't care for winter?) But the good thing is winter does lend itself to some pretty fun sensory activities that promote language! There's just something about playing a bin of snow (fake or real),… Continue reading Winter Fun To Promote Language
Mitten, Hat, and Sweater Crafts for Speech Therapy
Winter clothing week can be a fun one in speech therapy. The craft part is usually kind of difficult though. Last year, I came up with the wacky winter sweater (it's along the lines of the tacky Christmas sweater). This year, I have decided to add a couple more crafts to address different goals. What's awesome… Continue reading Mitten, Hat, and Sweater Crafts for Speech Therapy

Speech Therapy Theme Review: Thanksgiving Food
This past week of speech therapy has me so ready for Thanksgiving dinner!! We talked about turkey and pie all week! It's funny to listen to the kids tell me what they like to eat on Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Dinner Craft for Speech Therapy
Most all pediatric speech pathologists are reading the same book this time of year. "I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie" is always a big hit in speech therapy sessions. Kids love her!

Speech therapy… Continue reading Thanksgiving Apps for Speech Therapy
