Summer to Fall Experiences - Camping!
Is your child working on saying the R sound? Did you know there are so many opportunities outside of speech therapy for practicing speech? At Peggy’s Speech Therapy, when I'm not working directly with clients providing online speech therapy for the R sound, I am helping parents find fun and creative ways to transfer these speech skills to the real world. many kids head outdoors for adventures. Why not take those opportunities to practice the r sound with these speech and language strategies for parents?
R words you'll find all around...
Here are some words you may encounter as you go about your trip. Practice speech therapy skills at your home away from home by saying the words in silly sentences or questions!

Ideas to incorporate R words
● Play "I Spy" as you drive to your destination or while hiking
● Have a treasure hunt with all of the family to see who finds the most R words
● Make up campfire stories with the R sound
● While playing music, listen for R words in the lyrics
● Notice and talk about R words on road signs or billboards
