Hello everyone,
I'm after suggestions to help with my boy's speech. He has just turned three and is slow with his speech.
Little bit of background, he had only 50 words plus a few two-word sentences up until six months ago, then his speech accelerated and he now says many words and three and four-word sentences. However, his pronunciation is quite poor. He is understood about half of the time by family and pre-school staff and he has been referred to the speech therapy unit (just waiting to hear from them).
Until I can see the speech therapist, how can I encourage pronunciation? I do repeat anything he says incorrectly, he is talked to a lot, but any other little tricks/games?
His understanding is excellent and there are no other developmental concerns.
