Gingerbread Books for Speech Therapy

Oh man! I love gingerbread in speech therapy! It is so much fun and every session ends up being different. There are tons of gingerbread man variations out there so I am not claiming these are the best...just the ones I like! The original "Gingerbread Man" story even has tons of variations.  The 2 that… Continue reading Gingerbread Books for Speech Therapy

Speech Therapy Theme: Turkeys

Thanksgiving is seriously knocking (hard) on the door.  So we talked turkeys this week in speech therapy.  Plus, there's really nothing as cute as a toddler imitating a turkey sound (Gobble Gobble doesn't ever sound the same way twice!)  I used some of the same materials, updated some more and added some new.  It was… Continue reading Speech Therapy Theme: Turkeys

Simple Speech Therapy Activity: Mittens and a Snowball

Let's face it...simple speech therapy activities are the jam!  There's little to prep and keep up with.  You don't have to manipulate 10,000 items on your therapy table.  Most of the time, you can stretch that activity to reach the majority of your clients, if not all!  That last part is a huge BONUS!  As… Continue reading Simple Speech Therapy Activity: Mittens and a Snowball

Quick Drill Boxes in Speech Therapy

We've all seen the beautiful blogs posts about picture prefect therapy sessions go for that one speech therapist.  Let's be honest...not all speech therapy sessions are smooth and picture perfect.  You may see 6 kids in a mixed group in which you need to address everything from articulation to grammar in 30 minutes.  Maybe you… Continue reading Quick Drill Boxes in Speech Therapy

Finding ways to keep kids engaged and interested in speech therapy can be a tricky feat for even the most creative SLP.  After you have spent countless hours on creating ridiculously fabulous lessons (Great job, by the way!), there will always be that one kid that is like "Meh."  Or maybe you are the SLP… Continue reading “Light Up Language” in Speech Therapy

Speech Therapy Theme Review: Pinkalicious

Speech therapy just got really girly!  I absolutely love "Pinkalicious!"  I love the conversations that this book stimulates.  How many times were you told as a kid that would turn into the food you ate ALL THE TIME?  I certainly remember hearing I was going to turn into a chicken nugget one day.  Those same… Continue reading Speech Therapy Theme Review: Pinkalicious
