"Listening skills are critical for language development and reading. Children learn new vocabulary and expand their sentences and grammar—all thanks to listening.

Easy and Fun SPEECH Crafts for kids!

"Speech therapists are always searching for ways to keep kids motivated during
their therapy sessions.  Magic would be helpful, but since we don't have that, we
often use toys, games, movement and sensory experiences."

"Crafts are also perfect for speech therapy because they invite repetition, create
structure, and produce a tangible reward for task completion.  Crafts are wonderful opportunities to allow children to ask for help, make requests, 
and use sounds and words for accomplishment.  Also, they are simply fun!"
