Play Teach Talk

By: Tiffany Thompson MA CCC-SLP
  • Summary

  • Does your toddler use less words than expected for their age? Have you read all of the books, tried the educational toys, talked to your friends, and watched the videos? This podcast is recorded by a licensed speech pathologist, for parents, and outlines the reason for Early Intervention Speech Therapy, and how to use strategies to help your emerging talker use more words to communicate.
