Valentine’s Day Books for Speech Language Development

Books are my favorite way for parents and/or caregivers to work on language skills at home. Reading with your child can easily be incorporated into your daily routine. Language skills you can address while you read with your child include vocabulary, adjectives, wh-question (‘what’, ‘who’, ‘where’, ‘when’, and ‘why’), sequencing, and syntax. Below is a list I complied of my favorite Valentine’s Day books for language development.

Books to Practice Articulation Skills

One of the easiest ways for parents to practice their child’s articulation skills at home is to read sound loaded storybooks. As you read to your child, emphasize your child’s targeted sound when it is brought up in the story. If your child is a reader encourage them to seek out words in the book with their targeted speech sound. This also gives the opportunity to work on other speech and language skills like listening comprehension and vocabulary. As you read the story ask questions related to the book and have your child identify the objects in pictures. Below is a list of my favorite sound-loaded books.

How to Practice Articulation at Home

One of the most common questions I get from parents is how can they help a child’s articulation skills outside of traditional speech-language therapy. I have compiled a list of tips and tricks that parents can incorporate into your child’s day to help with articulation skills.

What is Articulation?

Articulation is the ability to physically move the tongue, lips, teeth and jaw to produce sequences of speech sounds, which make up words and sentences.

How to Respond to Articulation Errors

Children working on articulation skills can benefit greatly from feedback from those around them. Feedback from parents, caregivers and others can significantly improve articulation errors and intelligibility. Below are some tips on how to respond to articulation errors. If you’re working with a speech-language pathologist, he/she can help train you on how best to give feedback.
