I am a firm believer that communication happens everywhere. This up coming holiday is the perfect time to practice some skills with people that know your child but are not that familiar with them.
-social skills: greeting and holding a conversation with someone they haven't seen in awhile.
-articulation: can an unfamiliar listener understand them and are they carrying over their sound/s outside of a familiar environment.
-stuttering: using strategies during a family gathering or on the phone.
-language: requesting presents or food using a phrase or complete thought.
Just a few ideas to help you to use this time to gauge where your child's skills are, where they may be some work needed, and a chance to carry over skills to another environment.
May you have a happy and health New Year!
