When working on nonverbal language (specifically facial expressions and emotions), Simon's Cat can be a great tool! I suggest allowing your child to watch the entire video all the way through the first time then watch it again with added discussion. You can stop the video to allow kids to process portions of it, ask him/her questions, or discuss specific parts of it. Kids enjoy it!
Call a speech-language pathologist to talk about your concerns. It is very important to keep communication positive and if the child is not aware of his/her difficulty--KEEP IT THAT WAY! For more information on stuttering, check ASHA's link. http://www.asha.org/public/speech/disorders/stuttering.htm
Call a speech-language pathologist to talk about your concerns. It is very important to keep communication positive and if the child is not aware of his/her difficulty--KEEP IT THAT WAY! Here's a great book that answers that question. Great story and illustrations. A wonderful opportunity to work on language with your child! And, look closely~ there are some hidden pictures of Santa, a rabbit, a dinosaur, and more! |
