How to say the 'S' sound & How to move your lips, tongue, teeth

Hello! I can't wait to share this video with you. I have been working with kids for years and am a Speech Language Pathologist (M.S.- CCC-SLP). This video will help you learn to teach your children new skills at home including:

When working on saying the "S" sound follow these tips:
- Keep your teeth together
- Put the tip of your tongue up against your teeth
- Push the air out

This will help your child learn new skills, enforce learning skills from school at home, prepare your child for pre-school, and more. If you have questions always comment I am here to help. I hope this video will help you play with your child in a fun and structured way to promote learning!

When you say push your teeth together first, is it just the front teeth or all the teeth like you would chewing?

Question: My son has the habit of turning his /s/ sound into the /sh/ sound....so it's not his tongue moving forward... Any tips on how to turn the /sh/ sound into a clean /s/ sound?
