All About Articulation!

R. S. L. Th. Th. V. F. G. K. Sh. Ch. Blends...The list goes on. and on.
Day in and day out. 
Artic. Arctic. Artic.

So what are some go to games that I use?

There's the all-time Artic games (usually thanks to Super Duper!) that I think every SLP has on hand....
- Chipper Chat
- Go Fish
- Match
- Bingo
- Etc.

However, there is also several games that every SLP has on hand that I need reminded sometimes to drag out! 

Here are a few that I use as reinforcement: (Say 5 of your syllables/words/sentences/etc. to take a turn)
- Connect 4
- Candy Land 
- Jenga
- Kerplunk
- Guess Who


Here are a few that I attach words to:
- Bowling (great idea by ConstantlySpeaking)
- Jenga (great idea by Constantly Speaking)
- Dominoes
- Checkers (great idea by SpeechTimeFun)


Thanks to Pinterest and blogs, there are unlimited resources out there for printable games and homemade activities!! Here are a few that I have printed. Yay for inexpensive therapy materials! I am attaching the links to a few:

Easy Breezy, Lemon...I'm a Little Queasy??

Well.. I've been slacking on my blogging lately..I must apologize! Between the million referrals for Kindergarteners and some exciting news in our family, my brain has been in a million places!

So.. what's the big news?! Well.. our 8 month old keeps us hopping! But obviously not enough... we have another little bundle of joy on the way! We are so excited! However, this means than I now have pregnancy brain AND baby brain! Hence... the absence of enough collected thoughts to blog lately!

Bear with me for the next several months, and hopefully I won't skip out too terribly much!

Also.. any and all prayers appreciated as we grow from learning to be a family of 3 to a soon to be family of 4!
