Winter break shifts routines and energy levels ❄️💛.

Some days go smooth and others feel a bit louder and bigger. When your child curls up with a book, builds with blocks, or shares a silly moment, they’re building language through connection.

Speech practice lives inside these tiny everyday moments. You’re doing an amazing job helping your child stay grounded during this busy month.

Holiday baking gives you an easy way to practice language without stopping the fun 🍪❄️. Kids stay involved because they already love mixing, pouring, and decorating, and these moments give you natural chances to work on following directions and simple sequencing. 🔄⏲️

As you move through the recipe, slide in short lines that fit right into what they’re doing: “Put the spoon in the bowl,” 🥣 “Stir it until it’s smooth,” “Put the frosting on top.” 🥮 These quick directions help them connect words with actions while still feeling like part of the baking.

If your child enjoys choices, ask things like “Which one do we add next?” or “Where should this go?” They get to stay hands-on while practicing language in the middle of something familiar and fun.

What holiday cookie 🍪 is your kiddo’s favorite?

Winter brings the perfect chance to talk about arctic animals 🐧❄️🐻‍❄️❄️🦊❄️. Kids love learning about creatures that live in snow and water and that curiosity opens the door for strong vocabulary practice.

Be sure to practice saying the animal while watching the video: “Polar bear 🐻‍❄️,” “Penguin 🐧,” “Walrus 🦭,” “Arctic Wolf 🐺.”

Add one describing word each time such as “big,” “cold,” or “fast.”

These tiny add-ons help your child expand from single words to short phrases and give meaning to new vocabulary. Head over to this Youtube to learn more about arctic animals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXxzjmCFwTI.

• Movement toys for kids who focus best while active

Getting ready for winter play is a perfect time to practice following directions and using sequence words like "first," "next," and "last."It’s the perfect time to practice labeling, describing, and categories ❄️🧤. Kids love talking about what they’re wearing and what they see outside.

Try labeling winter items together:
• coat 🧥
• hat 🧢
• scarf 🧣
• mittens 🧤
• boots ❄️👢

Then add one describing word:
“Warm hat.”
“Soft scarf.”
“Big boots.”

Using winter categories (clothes, weather, activities) helps kids discover new vocabulary in everyday routines.

What winter item does your child grab first?

Kids love holiday jokes because they get to listen for the “surprise” 🎄🤣. That tiny pause before the punchline builds timing, turn-taking, and social understanding.

After the joke, try asking:
“What made it funny?”
“What did you hear first?”
“What part surprised you?”

Their explanation builds more language than the joke itself.

Which joke did your child share today?

A winter scavenger hunt is an easy way to keep your child engaged inside while practicing vocabulary, descriptions, and simple directions ❄️🧣. Kids love searching for each winter item and the BINGO challenge adds just enough excitement to keep them moving.

As they look around the house, pause with them when they find something on the page. Ask them to name and describe the item before marking it off, this gives them a quick language reinforcement in the middle of the game:

🧦 Whose name is on the stocking?
⛄ How does the snowman look?
❤️🤍 What color is the candy cane?

If your kiddo enjoys the challenge, have them try finding everything on the BINGO card!
