The Miami County ESC is preparing and looking forward to hosting the prom for our high school students tomorrow. Make sure to put on some comfy dancing shoes!
Tips from our SLP staff:
The value of play in a child's speech development is very important! While your child plays with toys and games, take the time to sit with them and model how the toy is used. Highlight its different parts. Use an animated voice.
