Tongue Thrust Exercises – 1: /t/
Tongue Exercises
Make a clicking sound with the tongue, by pushing the tongue tip and blade tightly against the top of the mouth and, without touching the teeth, drop the tongue with a clicking sound.
Ask your child to do this exercise whenever the occasion permits and at least once a day sit down with him had have him do it for you for 5-10 minutes.
When possible (while studying, watching TV, etc.) have your child hold a raisin, cheerio, or other small edible object against the alveolar ridge with their tongue tip. See how many minutes they can hold it there.
