128: How to Support Speech While Connecting with Your Child: An Episode for Parents AND Kids with Wee Talkers
This is a Holding Space first! In today's special episode with speech therapists Carly and Katie of Wee Talkers, we are inviting your little one to tune in too!
In the first half of the episode Carly and Katie offer supportive (and simple) ways you can support speech everyday with your children. Ever find yourself more stressed from all the information about child development out there? This conversation will leave you feel informed and empowered, without the pressure. You don't need to be a speech therapist to support your child's speech while having fun!
Towards the end of the episode we invite your little one to join in with some fun song time! Consider this a connection opportunity, with some hidden speech support thrown in. I also share a connection ritual song that I sing every night with our kids that has proven to help us accept the hard feelings from the day too.
Wee Talkers teaches parents of babies and toddlers how to support their childā€™s language and communication development. They offer connection-driven language resources via online education, courses and memberships.
