Speech Sound Disorders
Speech sound disorders include articulation disorders, phonological disorders, and motor speech disorders.
If your child has a speech sound disorder, you may notice:
Their speech is harder to understand compared to other children their age
They delete sounds in words like, ‘cu,’ for, ‘cup’
They substitute sounds in words like, ‘tun,’ for, ‘sun’
They distort sounds in words like, ‘caw,’ for, ‘car’
Speech sound disorders can affect a child’s confidence, social relationships, and literacy development.
Speech-language therapy can help increase the clarity of your child’s speech.
