Do you praise your child when they are practicing their speech? If not--you should!

 Providing your child with praise and positive feedback helps to increase their motivation and success when producing their speech sounds. 

Give your child encouragement when they are practicing their sounds, simple words of encouragement go along way in your child’s development! 

Try things like:

“Great trying!”
“I’m so proud of you!”
“You’re working so hard!”

BE SPECIFIC! 

Describe to your child what they did correctly so they will continue to make progress! 

Try: 

“Great job putting your tongue up to make the ‘t’ sound!”
