Strengthen abdominal muscles can increase sentence length, strengthening the tongue correctly for (K,G) and ng sounds that are produced at the back of the mouth.

Lip rounding for sounds (W, OO) and ‘O’ when your child is blowing if the shape of the lips is round, great if they are more on the flat side try squeezing their cheeks to get their lips in the right position.

Speech Sounds – When your child requests more bubbles with a sign or gesture try modelling the sound (m) more, (b) bubbles or (p)for pop.
