My baby girl is 4 1/2 years old and has a hard time talking so she can be understood. I have been trying to work on this with her. Whenever she says something a little off we will try out the sounds and say it again and find other words with the same sounds.
For example today she said “I don’t like pankins (Spankings)”
So we practiced saying the “S” sound and we said spanking a few times, then we tried to find other words that started with the “S” sound so we could practice. It turns into quite a game for us and we have a good time trying to find words. Today we came up with words like: Silly, Sunday, Summer, Spring, Sweet and Snake.
Later that afternoon I had my little daughter gather towels in the bathroom so I could wash them. As she was caring the towels into the laundry room she said:
“Ssss, Sssss, SLAVE!”
When my kids were younger they always insisted that the Annie cd was put in at chore time so they could clean to “It’s a Hard Knock Life”.
Too cute and funny! Arn’t kids hilarious!
He he he! She’s a good little slave too! We have the same issues with “s” and “p”…must be a 4yr old thing!
Oh they are so smart. Hehe. Too cute
