🧒 “My child used to talk, but now he barely says a word...”  
Sound familiar?
Some children between ages 2–5 suddenly lose their ability to speak or understand language. It’s not just being shy or stubborn — it could be a warning sign of Childhood Aphasia.

🔍 What is Childhood Aphasia?
Childhood aphasia happens when brain damage causes a child to lose language skills they previously had.
Warning signs may include:
* Sudden loss of words they used to say
* Speaking strangely or with errors
* Difficulty understanding simple instructions
* Less social interaction or avoidance of speech

🚨 Common Causes of Brain Damage:
🧠 Stroke (yes, kids can have strokes too) 🚗 Head injuries (falls, accidents) 🦠 Brain infections (like encephalitis)
These can affect language centers in the brain, causing speech to “disconnect.”

Early assessment + individualised therapy can support your child’s communication recovery.

💬Language Regression: Is it developmental delay or a sign of language disruption❓

A child who used to speak suddenly becomes quiet and struggles to express themselves...
These changes may not be due to "slow development" or the child being "unwilling to speak,"
but rather something we want to introduce today: 👉 Childhood Aphasia

🧠 What is Childhood Aphasia? Childhood aphasia is a type of language disorder caused by brain injury or neurological events. Children may:
* Lose previously acquired language comprehension or expression abilities
* Suddenly become unable to speak or understand speech
* Show changes in emotions and reduced social interaction It usually happens suddenly, and is different from developmental language delay.

🔍 How is it different from Developmental Language Delay?
Developmental Language Delay:
* Language delay can be observed from an early age
* There is no clear brain injury involved
* The child learns language slowly but shows gradual progress
Childhood Aphasia:
* The child previously spoke normally, but after events like brain injury or seizures, suddenly regresses in language
* Usually occurs after a neurological incident or trauma

⚠️ Red Flags Parents Should Watch Out For:
🔺 A child who used to speak fluently suddenly becomes quiet or unwilling to speak
🔺 Difficulty forming or organizing sentences
🔺 Has trouble understanding what others say
🔺 Frequently gives off-topic responses or uses incorrect/mixed-up words

❤️ Here’s What We Want You to Know:
🌱 It’s not that the child “doesn’t want to speak,” but that they may not be able to
🌱 The earlier it is identified, the earlier support and therapy can begin—and the better the outcome

📍We’re located in Taman OUG, and we welcome you to learn more about early intervention and our services.

"💬 I am just communicating differently”

As we know, many children with exceptional needs are experiencing limited speech and languages, or some of them are totally non-verbal. However, it does not mean that they have nothing to tell.

Communication is always more than only speech and spoken words. We are glad that today's technologies make almost everything possible, and therefore, we would like to discuss AAC with everyone today.

Check this post out, and let's know more about AAC.

‼️ Play matters 💫 Many of us think that play is just to have fun, to make the children feel happy and relax. However, play is actually more than just a play. Play therapy provides an opportunity for children to express themselves in terms of feelings, emotions or ideas because play is the language of a child. Check the post out to know more about play therapy! ❤️‍🔥

S.O.S ‼️ I can feed my child better now ✨
If your little one has feeding or eating issue, then you should learn more about S.O.S (Sensory Oral Sequential). This is an approach that helps our little one to overcome feeding and eating problems by looking into different aspects such as psychologically, behavioural, oral motor, sensory and etc.
This approach focuses on desensitisation with a systematic and gradual process. It allows the child to progress in his/her own pace, to find his/her best comfort in the learning process ✨
Read more about the six major steps to apply this approach ✨

‼️It’s SHARING HAPPINESS day ✨

Almost a year ago, I met this lil one. I’m the beginning, his milestone master score was just *23.5*, because he has very limited verbal expression, unable to make simple request, lack of two way communication, poor eye contact, poor responsiveness and accompanied with behaviour problems 🥺
After 11 months of intervention, it’s time to harvest ❤️ With all the collaborations between therapist and parents, he improved sooooo much! Now, he’s able to maintain simple conversation, answer WH questions, able to describe events, able to express himself properly by using words ✨
We are so happy to see the improvement of this lil one ❤️ We are so proud of how well he did throughout the sessions. Once again, thank you so much for the collaborations from parents and therapist, let’s work harder to guide this lil cutie one continue thriving! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

😩 MY CHILD IS A PICKY EATER‼️

Oh wait ❗️Maybe he is not ⁉️
Sometimes, we might confuse between PICKY EATER and ARFID because both of them share similarities.
However, to certain extent of food rejection might be a red flag that we need to be aware. Feeding or eating problems are common in children with special needs, especially children with autism or sensory processing disorder (SPD). They might reject food due to the texture, colours, smell and etc.

Check this post out to know more about ARFID in order to understand our little one better 🍏 🍎 🍐 🍊 🍋 🍌 🍉 🍇 🍓 🫐 🍈 🍒 🍑 🥭 🍍 🥥 🥝 🍅 🍆 🥑
