The Language of Play - Kids that Listen, Speech Therapy, Language Development, Early Intervention

Hey Friends~ 
“Is my child behind in speech? When should my toddler be talking? Should I wait and see, or do I need to worry right now?
If you’ve ever asked yourself those questions, you’re not alone. Parents all over the world type those exact words into Google every single day — because watching your child struggle to talk, or not knowing if they’re on track, can feel overwhelming.
This is the FIRST EPISODE IN THIS SERIES as we talk about speech and language delays in young children, focusing on ages 1-5.  
In this episode, you will  understand the difference between speech and language,  what milestones matter, which red flags you shouldn’t ignore, and what you can do at home right now to support your child - whether or not there is a delay!
You are your child’s best teacher!  This episode will help you maximize on that!
Always cheering you on!

ABOUT THE GUEST:   
Former DC attorney, Daniela Feldhausen  realized that her true passion is teaching kids to read. As the founder of Kids Up Reading Tutors, she’s built a team of 20 specialists who help students all across the country overcome dyslexia, dysgraphia and other reading challenges.
Their approach is evidence-based and efficient.  Students typically get caught up to their classmates in months rather than years. This accelerated progress stems from rigorous application of current research into how students learn to read and spell, sometimes referred to as the "Science of Reading."
They’ve developed a structured literacy program that is then tailored to each student's specific needs, combining phonological awareness, Orton-Gillingham-based phonics and systematic spelling instruction. Their one-on-one virtual sessions create a judgment-free environment where struggling readers develop both skills and confidence—turning "I HATE Reading" into "I LOVE Reading!"

Hey Friends~ 
When we talk to our kids, we use words that represent whole concepts all the time.  We do it so spontaneously that it’s difficult to communicate without using such words.  When our kids don’t have a good repertoire of concept - type words, it makes it difficult for them to do as told, express themselves, or deliver a message, accurately.  
Today we discuss what concept words are, why they are important  AND what you can do to increase understanding at home!  This is  the fun part!  You don’t need flashcards. You don’t need apps. You already have everything you need to teach these words—just by playing, talking, and living life with your child.  I am going to call attention to what you already have and know… so that you can be intentional when you are teaching them. 
Always cheering you on!

Hey Friends~ 
BIG Feelings are so hard!  It’s confusing! And sometimes really disruptive. 
Give yourself grace parents, become curious.  
What if we could understand how our child felt by looking at the color that they chose to wear?  Wouldn’t that be amazing and helpful?!!Today’s guest decided to combine her child’s interests with colors to create a way to help him communicate better after an acquired language loss.  You will learn her story and how she helped her little one regain a way to communicate better again. 
Many times we as parents want to get our kids out of their icky feelings. The reality is that we want our children to walk through their feelings and to feel their feelings. This is an important part to learning self-regulation. We must allow our children to experience their feelings. 
Constance Lewis shares her story and the children’s book she wrote to support all children.

Hey Friends~ 
There are many different parenting styles, types, and programs, and the number can vary depending on how they're categorized. Broadly, these can be grouped into Core styles, Modern styles, Therapeutic approaches.  And cultural/philosophies.  
you're looking at LOTS of ideas and  many overlap as real-life is real!  And kids and parents need practice and discernment which develops over time. 
When you are faced with raising kids and don’t know what to do … the internet can be an information overload!  In this episode we look at the 7-7-7 Rule.  We will acknowledge what is good, and show you how to punch in ideas that just don’t have the right feel.  
Always cheering you on!
