The longer your child speaks, they become more and more intelligible.
Your child adds vowel sounds to the end of words.
Your child may not change their pitch.

The next time your kid acts out, give them a big hug instead of questioning their behavior right away. Once they start to feel better, talk about what made them so upset that they behaved inappropriately. https://t.co/h4LKX9z0kU

Pediatric OT's help children AND train caregivers. This training could be anything, for example teaching the parents how to transfer their child from a wheelchair safely. Contact us for more information. https://t.co/FbzFwvioj0

Self-Calming Tip! Did you know a 20 second hug produces oxytocin, a naturally occurring hormone in our body that boosts feelings of well-being, lowers blood pressure, and relieves the harmful physical effects of stress? https://t.co/h4LKX9QBJu

Are you familiar with verbal apraxia. Verbal Apraxia affects a child's sound of speech. They may have trouble saying what they want to say consistently. https://t.co/FbzFwv0Nrs
