“What should I get my kid for Christmas?” “What toys do you recommend for speech/language development?” “Do you think my kid needs.....?” Early Intervention therapists get these questions every year during the holiday season. You can promote speech and language with just about any toy (watch for an upcoming blog), but most of my favorites are the “classics"... These are toys I keep coming back to time after time. Make sure you have these in your toy box! Keep this list in mind as you shop this year or share it with family members who may need some guidance! You can find language opportunities everywhere and with so many toys. These are just a few that I use on a regular basis. Hopefully this gives you some fun, new toys to add to your kid's wish list or give you fresh ideas to play with toys you already have!
