New Year, New Habits: Simple Speech & Language Routines That Actually Stick

As a new year begins, many parents feel motivated to set goals to support their child’s speech and language development. While that intention is wonderful, big resolutions can quickly feel overwhelming once real life settles back in. The truth is, progress in speech therapy doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from doing small, meaningful things consistently. Speech and language skills develop best through everyday interactions that happen naturally throughout the day. Children learn through repetition, modeling, and connection, not through long practice sessions or constant questioning. Even five minutes of intentional language during daily routines can have a powerful impact over time.
Simple routines are often the easiest to maintain.

Everyday Routines That Build Speech & Language
- During Bath Time - Talk about what’s happening as it happens: “Wash arms. Splash water. All done!” This models vocabulary, short phrases, and sequencing without requiring your child to respond.
- At Mealtime - Instead of asking lots of questions, make comments: “Crunchy apple. You’re eating!” This reduces communication pressure while still providing strong language models.
- Before Bed - Reading one short book each night builds vocabulary, attention, and narrative skills. You don’t need to read every word, talk about the pictures, repeat favorite phrases, and keep it enjoyable.

The key to building lasting habits is keeping them realistic. Attach language-building moments to routines you already do, rather than adding new tasks to your day. Consistency matters far more than perfection, and progress often shows up quietly—in increased confidence, longer utterances, or less frustration. As you move into the new year, remember that meaningful speech and language growth doesn’t require more time. It simply requires intention in the moments you already share with your child.

December is one of my favorite months to talk about toys, not just because they make wonderful gifts, but because the right toys can sneak in so much learning. One of the most powerful types of toys for young children’s speech and language development are cause-and-effect toys. These are toys that teach children, “If I do something, something happens!” Why does that matter? Cause-and-effect play builds early cognitive skills, keeps children engaged, and naturally encourages communication. Children learn to request, comment, use gestures, and practice turn-taking, all essential building blocks of language. Here are some of my favorite tried-and-true cause-and-effect toys that make perfect holiday gifts and support strong language development.

Whether you're adding one of these toys to your holiday list or gifting to another family, you’re giving something far more valuable than a present, you’re giving opportunities for connection, play, and language.

The holiday season is filled with family, food, and special traditions—and it’s also a wonderful opportunity to support your child’s speech-language development in natural, meaningful ways. Whether you’re celebrating Thanksgiving, preparing for December holidays, or simply enjoying time together at home, everyday moments can be turned into opportunities for communication growth without adding any extra stress.
During Thanksgiving, involve your child in simple tasks like helping set the table or preparing ingredients. These routines naturally build functional vocabulary (plate, cup, stir, pour), sequencing skills (“first we mash, then we bake”), and social language (“Can you pass the…?”, “Thank you”). Talking about the foods on the table or sharing what you’re grateful for encourages expressive language, turn-taking, and descriptive skills.
As December holidays approach, there are even more chances to practice communication through traditions like decorating, gift-giving, and family gatherings. Labeling ornaments, describing lights or decorations, and following steps to wrap presents can strengthen vocabulary, comprehension, and direction-following. Social routines—greeting family, saying thank you, or asking questions—also create meaningful practice for pragmatic skills. Even reading holiday stories or talking about your family’s traditions supports narrative skills and helps children make connections between language and their world.

Most importantly, these moments don’t need to be planned or perfect. Functional communication grows best when it’s woven naturally into shared experiences. By slowing down and inviting your child into the small tasks and conversations of the season, you’re giving them rich, real-life opportunities to build confidence, connection, and communication skills—all while making memories together.

Incorporating Speech Therapy into Halloween and Fall Fun

Fall brings endless opportunities for fun—and for building your child’s speech and language skills. With a little creativity, seasonal activities can easily double as speech therapy practice!

Build Vocabulary with Fall Adventures�
Whether you’re carving pumpkins, picking apples, or playing in leaves, talk about what you see and do. Label objects (“That pumpkin is big and bumpy”), describe textures and colors, and introduce action words like jump, rake, and stir. These conversations help children learn new words naturally.

Practice Speech Sounds
�If your child is working on certain sounds, find themed words to practice together:
* /k/: pumpkin, candy, cat
* /s/: scarecrow, spider, spooky
* /l/: leaf, light, fall�Make it playful—say words in silly voices, whisper them, or use them in short sentences.

Build Social Skills
While Trick-or-Treating�Halloween night is perfect for practicing greetings and manners. Encourage your child to say “Trick or treat!” and “Thank you!” Role-play beforehand so they feel confident taking turns and making eye contact.

Strengthen Storytelling and Sequencing�
After fall events, ask your child to retell what happened: “What did we do first? Then what?” You can even draw pictures in order to make it visual. Sequencing helps develop strong narrative and comprehension skills.

Use Crafts and Cooking for Language Expansion�
Seasonal crafts or baking—like making pumpkin muffins—are great for following directions, describing actions, and learning concepts like first, next, and last.

Keep It Playful�
Speech practice works best when it feels natural. Comment more than you question, give time for responses, and model language gently.

By weaving speech and language goals into festive fall moments, you’ll help your child grow their communication skills—all while enjoying the season together!

Did you know that October is AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) Awareness Month? At Advent Therapy Solutions, we’re proud to celebrate the power of AAC and the incredible ways it helps children and adults connect, express themselves, and engage with the world around them.

AAC includes any form of communication other than spoken words—such as pictures, visual boards, gestures, or devices that generate speech. For individuals with limited oral language, AAC provides a voice and a way to make requests, express feelings, answer questions, protest, greet others, or comment on what’s happening around them.

There’s a common misconception that AAC is only for individuals who can’t speak at all, but that’s not true. AAC supports a wide range of communicators—from early language learners to those developing more complex communication skills. At Advent Therapy Solutions, our goal is to help every individual find the right tools and strategies to express themselves confidently.

We work closely with families to assess communication needs, select appropriate AAC systems, and provide hands-on training so that AAC use becomes natural across daily routines. Communication practice doesn’t stop in the therapy room—it happens everywhere! Here are some real-life ways to encourage AAC use in the community:

1. At the park: Practice social phrases like “Hi,” “My turn,” “Your turn,” or “Let’s play!”�2. During family outings: Encourage expressing preferences—“I like swings,” “Go fast,” or “More bubbles!”
3. At restaurants: Model simple conversations like greetings, making requests (“I want pizza”), and saying thank you.

Every experience can be a language-learning opportunity when AAC is part of your child’s world. At Advent Therapy Solutions, we believe that every voice deserves to be heard—and we’re here to help families make that possible. Learn more or schedule an AAC consultation by contacting us today!

As the seasons change, it’s the perfect time to pause, reflect, and set fresh goals in therapy. At Advent Therapy Solutions, we know that progress happens step by step—and fall brings plenty of opportunities to make communication practice meaningful and fun! Here’s how we tailor fall-themed goals for every stage of life:

Toddlers & Preschoolers
- Expanding vocabulary with seasonal words like pumpkin, apple, leaf, and scarecrow
- Practicing requesting (“more,” “help,” “open”) during fall crafts or snack time
- Encouraging social skills like taking turns while playing pumpkin toss or fall-themed games

School-Age Children
- Strengthening storytelling by retelling fall activities (hayrides, apple picking) with a clear beginning, middle, and end
- Practicing sequencing by talking through steps of carving a pumpkin or baking cookies
- Building articulation skills while reading fall books or describing colorful leaves

Teens & Young Adults
- Practicing conversation skills at seasonal events like football games, fall dances, or festivals
- Developing organization and planning strategies for school projects or upcoming holidays
- Building confidence in group discussions or presentations by practicing with real-world fall topics

Adults
- Supporting memory and problem-solving with seasonal tasks like meal prep, grocery lists, or holiday planning
- Practicing voice or articulation strategies in real conversations at family gatherings
- Using fall routines (daily walks, social outings, or cooking) to reinforce independence and communication strategies

At Advent Therapy Solutions, we believe that just like the leaves change, growth in therapy takes time—but every small step is worth celebrating. Ready to set meaningful therapy goals this fall? Let’s work together to make your goals our priority. Contact us today to learn more!

Falling Back Into Routines: Supporting Speech and Language After Summer Break

The shift from carefree summer days to the structured school year can feel bumpy—for kids and parents alike. For children working on speech and language goals, re-establishing routines is especially important to help them feel confident and continue making progress.

1. Rebuild Daily Structure�Set predictable times for homework, reading, and downtime. Consistent routines give kids a sense of security, making it easier for them to focus on communication tasks. Even small steps—like reviewing the next day’s schedule together—can help reduce anxiety and prepare them for school expectations.

2. Refresh Communication Habits at Home�Integrate speech and language practice into natural moments: name ingredients while packing lunches, talk through steps while getting ready for school, or discuss the day’s highs and lows at dinner. These little conversations strengthen vocabulary, sequencing, and expressive language skills without feeling like extra homework.

3. Partner With Teachers and Your Child’s SLP�Early in the school year, share updates about your child’s summer progress and any strategies that worked well. Ask teachers and therapists how you can support classroom carryover at home. Open communication builds a consistent support network and ensures everyone is working toward the same goals.

4. Keep Transitions Positive�Acknowledge that change can be hard. Praise your child’s efforts, even small ones—like remembering to use a speech strategy or participating in class. Celebrate progress and remind them that skills built last year haven’t been lost; they’re simply picking up where they left off.

With a little structure, collaboration, and encouragement, your child can step confidently into the new school year and keep their communication growth on track.

Back-to-school season brings new routines, new teachers, and fresh opportunities for your child to grow. If your child receives speech therapy, this is the perfect time to make sure everyone involved is on the same page. Parents play a key role in staying informed about progress. Request regular updates from your child’s school-based speech therapist and ask how goals are being addressed in the classroom. If your child also receives private therapy, encourage open communication between both providers to ensure consistency and reduce overlap. Alignment across settings allows your child to practice the same strategies and build skills more effectively. When therapists share insights, your child benefits from consistency and reinforcement across settings.

At home, try to carry over therapy activities whenever possible. Small moments—reading together, practicing new vocabulary, or modeling speech strategies—help strengthen what your child is learning in therapy. It’s also important to keep your child’s teacher in the loop. Share any current needs, strategies that work well, and recent milestones. Teachers can then incorporate these supports into classroom routines, giving your child more opportunities to practice in a natural setting.

When parents, teachers, and therapists work together, children make stronger, more confident progress. This school year, think of yourself as the bridge—keeping communication open, celebrating growth, and making sure your child’s hard work carries over everywhere they learn and play. At Advent Therapy Solutions, we offer private, play-based speech and language therapy to support your child’s progress at home, school, and beyond. Contact us today for a consultation or to learn more about how we can help!
