Hi. When it comes to working on sounds at home, it's really hard to say what strategies you can use to help without seeing a child talk and trying to make those sounds. For this reason, I'd recommend a speech and language evaluation if you are able. I personally don't have a ton of resources on strategies for specific sounds, but I will link a few others for you. Keep in mind, practice should be fun and enjoyable for your child; if they are frustrated it's a good idea to take a break.

Keep in mind, the S and Z sounds are generally learned after T D and N, but you can check out this resource: speakeasycommunity.com/blog/how-to-make-the-s-and-z-sounds?source=google&campaign=search01&gclid=Cj0KCQjwj_ajBhCqARIsAA37s0xS5g_YJBRfX5XOvd5KBhWtX2CT6n-PCcVNK8f3OCOM3LuMWJFb_wYaAq9hEALw_wcB
Hey! I’m living in italy n we talk in English at home with our toddler.. he’s starting preschool in September this year bt I’m afraid if he feel uncomfortable or something when others talk in another language.. i feel bad I’m stressed thinking always why I didn’t talk to him in italian language from the beginning.. but now I can’t turn back.. please… any advice from u?
Hi Dinusha :) Toddlers are very adaptable and capable of learning new languages. Where I live many children enter school speaking no English, and they quickly learn the language from their friends and teachers. As you prepare for preschool you might begin to introduce some Italian words that he can use to express his needs (like the bathroom, not feeling well, hungry etc.). I wouldn't recommend that you stop speaking English, just integrate some Italian and trust that he'll have fun learning at school. Here's some information about bilingual language development in case you are interested: toddlertalk.com/blog/bilingual-language-development
Good morning. Do you have this info in a PDF or outline form please?

How can we help my daughter with missing sounds due to extended pacifier use (T, D, S, Z and N) please? Thanks
