✨ Does your child say “tea” for “key” or “dough” for “go”? This is called fronting—a phonological pattern where front sounds (/t, d/) replace back sounds (/k, g/).

By age 3.5–4, kids should grow out of this pattern. If your child is still making these errors beyond the expected age, a speech-language pathologist (SLP) can help! 💬

Early support can make a big difference in helping your child be understood. 💕 Send us a message or fill out the intake form on our website—we’d love to connect with you! We have a few consistent spots still open for new clients, so reach out today to secure your time! 😊

✨ Choosing the right therapy approach matters! ✨

For children with speech sound disorders, diagnosis drives intervention. This means the therapy approach should be based on your child’s specific type of speech sound disorder, using evidence-based therapy approaches designed for that disorder. 💡

The 3 main types are:
🔹 Articulation Disorders – distortions and substitutions in the production of individual speech sounds (frontal lisp, lateral lisp, and /r/ errors)
🔹 Phonological Disorders –predicable patterned based errors that affect more than one sound/classes of sounds (e.g., fronting- back sounds are produced at the front- “tup” for cup or “dough” for “go.”)
🔹 Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)/Motor Speech Disorders – difficulty planning and coordinating the motor movements required to produce clear speech.

Your child’s SLP should be able to explain:
🔹 What type of speech sound disorder your child presents with
🔹 The therapy approach they’re using—and why

When the right match is made, kids make quicker, stronger, and lasting progress. 💬❤️
