These early behaviors help lay the foundation for later speech and language skills.

Before kids can even say full words, many of them respond to music. They might sway, clap, or hum along. That’s because music connects with them in a special way.
Singing during routines like brushing teeth or clapping out words in the car can turn everyday moments into chances for language growth.

🎶 Every beat, every rhyme, every silly verse helps your child find their voice.

If your child struggles with saying certain sounds clearly, it’s more common than you might think and support is available.

Articulation delays can be connected to how the brain and muscles work together to produce speech. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) guide children through targeted practice using repetition, cues, and structured play.

Therapy often involves:
🔸 Modeling correct sounds
🔸 Practicing in single words, then full sentences
🔸 Using visual, verbal, or tactile prompts
🔸 Building confidence through activities that feel like play

Early intervention supports clearer speech and helps children thrive socially, emotionally, and academically.

A child may understand what you're saying but still have trouble putting their own thoughts into words.

That’s the difference between receptive and expressive language. Knowing the signs helps parents give the right kind of support.
