      <image:caption>*When considering intelligibility percentages, it is important to note that parents often overestimate their children’s speech intelligibility. It can be helpful to listen to the feedback from less familiar listeners.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Speech - What's typical and what isn't</image:title>
      <image:caption>Phonological disorders refer to differences in sound production due to linguistic differences. These errors might appear as the child's consistent phonological rules, like producing all back sounds in the front (a phonological process known as fronting). This would sound like “dee” for “key.” Other signs of phonological disorder include omitting sounds at the end of words, collapsing syllables (e.g., “nana” for “banana”), reducing consonant clusters or blends (e.g., “side” for “slide”), and assimilating sounds in words (e.g., “tat” for “cat”).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A portion of this blog post was written by Olivia Crawford, a pediatric speech-language pathologist and owner of Little Sprouts Speech Therapy. In her work, Olivia supports “late talkers” or those toddlers who need a bit of support in meeting their expressive communication milestones. She combines direct intervention with caregiver coaching and provides therapy within a child-led, play-based framework.
