When we were working on feeding he had some exercises to do. Now that he is working on speech it is more play based. For example she has some cool blocks or a puzzle and he has to attempt to say something (we are working on basic sounds at this point) in order to get another block or puzzle piece. I don't know if that makes any sense! ;) She does lots of modeling and over exaggerates certain sounds. And many times it's just teaching me new tricks to try at home during the week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-experience-with-speech-therapy#post-2307490 Thu, 01 Oct 2015 11:05:50 +0000 math.nerd 2307490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello there,<br /> My son, who is almost 21 months old, just started speech therapy yesterday - and I think it went pretty well.</p> <p>I'm curious, what did speech therapy look like for your kids? What kinds of activities/interactions did your therapist have with your child? I know so little about this field of work and I just wanted to see if I could learn a little bit about the techniques that are out there.</p> <p>Thanks all! </p>
