When you have a child who uses Gestalts it is often difficult to think and adapt clinic activities into those to use at home. More importantly, you find that individualising your activities for your child who uses Gestalt are time-consuming. But you value its importance for their communication development.
You feel so busy, you are taking them to other appointments, or trying to get through your daily activities, all whilst still ensuring your child’s emotional needs are met. You know life should not get in the way of your child’s therapy activities at home, but it does. We know your spare time is precious and limited, so let us achieve your child’s or young person’s goals in the allotted time you have which meets their way of learning (using Gestalts).
We wanted to support you by exploring items which you may have at home, and we will give you some key phrases which you can start to model with your child. Whereas our last blog introduced the idea of gestalt language processors, we are now developing ideas to give you the tools to implement activities at home. We recognise how overwhelming it may feel, and this is one of the reasons to make activities as straight forward as possible. Therapy does not need to be complicated; it just needs to be carried out on a regular basis.
Explore the samples I’ve created to give you an idea of how this might look but please consult with a Speech and Language Therapist who knows about Gestalt Language Processing so that you can work together to develop great home activities for your child.

As a Speech and Language Therapist with a specialism in paediatric feeding, I’m constantly looking for ways to support families in developing their little ones’ oral motor skills and fostering a positive relationship with food. While Baby-Led Weaning (BLW) has revolutionised how many families introduce solids, (see my previous blog in July 25) a concept that often sparks discussion and curiosity is the use of ‘hard munchables.’
The term ‘hard munchables’ refers to specific types of firm non-digestible food items that are offered to babies for oral exploration and skill development, not for nutrition. These are typically foods that babies cannot bite off or swallow in large pieces due to their texture, but which provide resistance for chewing practice.
The phrase was coined by Marsha Dunn Klein, M.Ed., OTR/L, Occupational Therapist and feeding therapist. Well known for her work in paediatric feeding she introduced and advocated for the concept of hard munchables as part of a therapeutic feeding approach, particularly for infants learning to manage textures and develop crucial oral motor skills.
Common examples of hard munchables include:
Large, raw carrot sticks: Too hard to bite through, but great for gnawing.
Celery sticks: Like carrots, offering firm resistance.
Large, raw apple slices (peeled chunks): A firm, slightly sweet option.
A firm, uncut pear core: With the seeds removed.
Dried mango cheeks (hard, unsweetened varieties): These offer a fibrous texture.
A large, fully cooked but firm piece of meat (like a steak bone with some meat attached): The meat provides flavour and a bit of shreddable texture, while the bone is for gnawing.
Hard crusts of bread or breadsticks (very firm, without soft inner crumb): These can soften slightly with saliva but offer significant resistance.

It’s crucial to emphasise that hard munchables are not for consumption or nutrition. They are tools for oral motor development and should always be offered under strict, active supervision.
How do hard munchables fit into weaning?
While weaning (traditional or Baby-Led Weaning) introduces solid foods that a baby can eventually bite and swallow, hard munchables are complementary to the weaning phase. They enhance that phase by helping a child to develop hand dexterity, hand to mouth movement, and oral development.
It’s important to differentiate: Weaning provides the digestible food for eating, while hard munchables provide the tool for skill practice. They are not substitutes for each other but can be used together under careful guidance.
Pros and cons from a speech therapy perspective
As an SLT, I see both the potential benefits and the necessary precautions when incorporating hard munchables.
Pros:
Enhanced oral motor development: Hard munchables provide excellent resistance training for the jaw, helping to develop the strength, endurance, and coordination needed for efficient chewing. This is foundational for moving beyond purées and very soft textures.
Promotes lateralisation of the tongue: The act of moving the hard item from side to side in the mouth encourages the tongue to move independently of the jaw, a crucial skill for managing food and for speech sound production.
Preparation for more complex textures: By strengthening the oral musculature and refining chewing patterns, hard munchables can help babies transition more smoothly to lumpy and mixed textures.
Sensory exploration: They offer rich sensory input (tactile, proprioceptive) that can be beneficial for oral mapping and awareness, especially for babies who might be orally sensitive.
Cons:
Choking risk: While the intention is for the baby not to bite off pieces, there is always a risk. Small pieces can break off, or a baby might accidentally bite off a larger chunk than he or she can manage. Active, vigilant supervision is non-negotiable.
Not a replacement for digestible solids: It’s vital to remember that hard munchables are for practice, not nutrition. They should complement, not replace, the introduction of varied, digestible solid foods.
Not suitable for all babies: Babies with certain developmental delays, oral motor deficits, or medical conditions might not be appropriate candidates for hard munchables without highly specialised guidance. For instance, babies with an exaggerated gag reflex might find them overwhelming.
Key Considerations for Parents
Here are my top recommendations:
Consult with a professional: Always discuss this with your Paediatric Feeding SLT first before you introduce hard munchables. We can assess your baby’s individual readiness and guide you on safe practices.
Strict supervision: Never leave your baby unsupervised with a hard munchable, even for a second. Your full attention is required.
Appropriate size: Ensure the item is large enough that the baby cannot fit the whole thing in their mouth. It should extend well beyond their fist.
No biting off: The goal is gnawing and scraping, not biting off pieces. If your baby is consistently breaking off chunks, stop using them.
Focus on skill, not consumption: Reiterate to yourself that this is for practice, not for eating.
In conclusion, hard munchables, when used appropriately and under guidance, can be a very valuable tool to support oral motor development during the weaning journey. However, always be safe and consult with a specialist to ensure your little one develops his or her feeding skills effectively and joyfully.

When a child’s speech is difficult to understand, it can feel overwhelming for everyone involved. As a parent, your instinct is often to focus on helping your child ‘talk properly’. And that makes complete sense. Speech is important. But here’s the key message I want to share with you:
Speech is just one way to communicate.
And when speech is not yet clear, not yet reliable, or not yet available, children need other ways to get their message across.
This is where Total Communication comes in.
What is Total Communication?
Total Communication is an approach that encourages the use of all available ways to communicate, not just speech.
This can include:
spoken words
gestures and pointing
facial expressions
signing (such as Makaton)
pictures or symbols
drawing
electronic AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication), such as apps like LAMP Words for Life
It’s not about replacing speech. It’s about supporting communication in every possible way.
Think of it like this: if speech is currently unclear or limited, why restrict a child to the hardest route? Why not give them more tools to succeed?
‘But won’t this stop my child from talking?’
This is one of the most common concerns I hear in clinic.
Parents often worry that if a child starts using signs or a communication device, they will become ‘dependent’ on it and stop trying to talk.
The research tells us something very different.
Studies consistently show that AAC does not prevent speech development. In fact, it often supports it.
A review by Millar, Light & Schlosser (2006) found that AAC interventions do not reduce speech production and may actually increase it.
Romski & Sevcik (2005) demonstrated that children given AAC often develop stronger overall communication skills, including spoken language.
More recent work continues to show that providing AAC early can accelerate language development, not delay it.
So rather than ‘giving up on speech’, using AAC is actually building the foundations that speech needs.
Why Total Communication matters, especially for unintelligible children
When a child is very difficult to understand, they are often experiencing a hidden frustration:
‘I know what I want to say, but no one understands me.’
Over time, this can lead to:
reduced confidence
behavioural frustration
withdrawal from communication
fewer opportunities to practise language
If a child cannot successfully communicate, they communicate less. And when they communicate less, their language development slows down.
Total Communication breaks this cycle.
By giving a child reliable ways to be understood, we:
reduce frustration
increase interaction
build confidence
create more opportunities for language learning
And importantly, we allow them to show us what they already know.
AAC is a bridge, not a barrier
Using AAC (whether that’s pointing to pictures, signing, or using a device) does something powerful:
It separates language from speech.
A child might have lots of ideas, vocabulary, and understanding but their speech system (especially in cases like phonological disorder or childhood apraxia of speech) cannot yet keep up.
AAC allows the child to:
express complex ideas now
practise sentence structure
develop vocabulary
take part in conversations
All while their speech is still developing.
In other words, AAC doesn’t replace speech. It keeps language moving forward while speech catches up.
What does this look like in real life?
In therapy, I often use a combination of approaches:
modelling simple signs alongside speech
pointing to symbols while talking
encouraging children to gesture or show
using drawings to support understanding
incorporating an AAC device such as LAMP Words for Life
You might see a child:
say part of a word
point to a symbol
use a gesture
and look at you expectantly
That is communication success.
And success builds motivation.
‘I just want them to talk’
Of course you do. And I do too!! That’s always the goal.
But here’s the important shift in thinking:
Children learn to talk by communicating, not by waiting until speech is perfect.
If we hold out for clear speech before allowing other communication methods, we risk:
limiting their ability to interact
reducing practice opportunities
increasing frustration
But if we support all communication, we give them:
more chances to express themselves
more positive communication experiences
more input and feedback
And that is what drives progress.
A balanced approach
Total Communication doesn’t mean ‘speech is no longer important’.
It means:
we continue targeted speech therapy
we work on sounds and clarity
and we support communication in the meantime
It’s not either/or.
It’s both/and.
Final thought
If your child’s speech is difficult to understand, the most important question is not:
‘Are they talking clearly yet?’
It’s:
‘Can they successfully communicate?’
Because communication is the foundation of:
relationships
learning
confidence
wellbeing
And every child deserves a voice, in whatever form that voice takes right now.

where the cause is NOT a swallowing problem, but we are having a “fussy eater” in the family, seeming for no obvious reason
When parents have a child who find mealtimes or eating difficult, it can put pressure on the whole family dynamics. Once we have observed a child’s eating and drinking skills and found that they are not swallowing impaired, but are for want of a better word “fussy” or “picky”, we can then start to look at what might be underpinning the food aversions/picky eating/food avoidance. Two of the main questions parents have (of course) are:
‘is my child getting the right nutrition?’
‘how can I have less anxiety-provoking and stressful mealtimes?’
We all tend to have an image in our minds about the ‘perfect mealtime’, and how mealtimes ‘should’ be. Speech and Language Therapists with a Feeding Specialism are the perfect professionals to help you unpick feeding issues. We are trained to look at swallowing and oral skills and we also know a lot about feeding behaviours and sensory difficulties which could be causing your child’s eating avoidance.
Here are some strategies that can support children with their eating:
Create and maintain a mealtime culture that suits your home and lifestyle. Then stick to that. We all need some routine in our lives to thrive. Mealtimes are no different. It might be that you eat in the same place for every meal, with the same knives and forks, concentrating on maintaining good posture. Children learn by repetition so the more familiar it is, the easier they will find it. In the physical sense, our bodies also need preparing for food, regardless of whether we are eating with our mouths or we are tube-fed. We want every child to connect all the dots of the process. It starts with their eyes, noses, expectations, memories of past experiences, feelings and then finally their mouths….
Be an excellent role model. Children learn through watching others, so your child will be observing you without you knowing. Ensure that you are positive about the food you are all eating, and talk about how delicious, tasty, juicy, and yummy the foods are. Make the atmosphere around the dinner table light hearted. Even though you are secretly stressed about your child not eating, try and not show this. Instead pick a topic or put on some nice music, or talk about something your child might be interested in, and try and avoid coercing your child to eat. Leave small finger foods on their plates and have a range of foods available on the table so that your child can see that everyone is eating a range of foods and enjoying them.
Use positive reinforcement. Try and think of mealtimes as fun and motivating. Children who are happy will likely be more inclined to try foods and take part in family mealtimes. Reward all interactions around food, so if your child merely touches a new food then praise this behaviour. Or if your child licks a food just once, again make a nice comment and praise your child for touching and licking the food. The takeaway here is to try and keep all messages positive around food.
Keep offering all types of food. What often happens is that parents stop serving foods they know will not be eaten. This makes sense in a way; we don’t want wastage! However, try and keep the doors open and re-offer all types of foods, even the ones that your child has not wanted in the past. Try and give your child one food they will like and one food they have tasted before and liked before, even a little, and then one new food to try. So, your child always has something to fall back on and they can join in with eating. But they can also try (or at least look at and think about trying) other foods that you and perhaps the siblings are eating.
Take a look at this website, I find it very helpful in showing parents what types of foods and how big a portion to offer
Have a go and try and implement some of the ideas above, and should you get stuck please get in touch!

As a parent, you’re always observing your child, celebrating his or her milestones, and sometimes, wondering if he or she is quite on track. When it comes to speech, language, play, attention, and listening, these early years are a whirlwind of development! It’s natural to seek guidance if you have concerns, and that’s where a truly comprehensive assessment comes in.
But what exactly does ‘comprehensive’ mean, especially when it goes beyond a typical checklist? You can find any number of check lists online these days but whilst they can give you an overall idea of what a child is typically expected to do at any given age, it can also start leading you into a rabbit hole of anxiety of ‘what-iffery’.
At The London Speech and Feeding Practice I believe in something far more insightful than a static evaluation: Dynamic Assessment. Think of it as an in-depth, interactive investigation into your child’s unique communication landscape, exploring not just what he or she can do, but how he or she learns and why he or she might be facing challenges. This is so important.
What makes an assessment ‘dynamic’?
Imagine trying to understand a child’s personality by just looking at a single photograph. It gives you a glimpse, but it hardly tells the whole story. Traditional, formal assessments, while valuable, can sometimes be like that photograph – a snapshot of skills at one specific moment.
Dynamic assessment, on the other hand, is a living, breathing process. It’s called ‘dynamic’ because:
It’s interactive and responsive: It adapts to your child’s needs in real-time. It’s not about sticking rigidly to a pre-set schedule of tests. Instead, it’s about observing, gently prompting, and providing support to see how your child responds and learns. This allows me to understand his or her learning potential, not just his or her current performance.
It’s holistic and multi-faceted: I look at the whole child. We delve deep into not just speech and language, but also his or her play skills (a crucial window into cognitive and social development), attention and listening abilities, and his or her social engagement. These areas are intricately linked, and a delay in one can often impact others.
It integrates multiple perspectives: Your insights as a parent are invaluable! Before we even meet, my comprehensive onboarding questionnaire gathers essential background. During the assessment, your feedback, observations, and comments are woven into the fabric of our session. You are the expert on your child, and your voice is central to forming a complete picture.
More than just ‘speech’: A deep dive into development
You might initially be concerned about your child’s speech sounds, or perhaps his or her ability to form sentences. These are vital areas, but my approach goes much further. I’m keen to understand:
The ‘why’ behind the ‘what’: Is a child struggling with language because of difficulties with understanding instructions (receptive language), or with expressing themselves (expressive language)? Are his or her attention skills impacting his or her ability to follow a conversation? Is his or her play demonstrating imaginative thought, or does he or she prefer more structured, repetitive activities? These nuances are critical.
Differential diagnosis: This is where the skill of an experienced clinician truly comes into its own. Through dynamic assessment, I can differentiate between a developmental delay (where a child is following a typical progression but at a slower pace) and a disorder (where his or her development is following an atypical pattern). This distinction is vital because it guides the type of support and intervention that will be most effective. Understanding the cause of the delay or disorder is paramount to creating a targeted, impactful therapy plan.
The art of observation
While I draw upon evidence-based practice as well as a formal, standardised assessment as well as my extensive clinical knowledge, I also rely heavily on the art of observation. From the moment your child walks into the room, I’m establishing rapport, engaging them in play, and creating a safe, fun environment. It’s through this genuine interaction – often without them even realising they’re being ‘assessed’ – that the most authentic insights emerge.
This is where the magic happens:
Building rapport: A child who feels comfortable and connected will show you so much more of his or her true abilities and personality. I pride myself on creating an atmosphere where children can relax and simply be themselves.
Play as a window: Play isn’t just fun; it’s a child’s natural language. It reveals his or her understanding of the world, his or her problem-solving skills, his or her social engagement, and his or her ability to use symbols and language.
Skilled interpretation: My years of experience allow me to see beyond surface-level behaviours and interpret the subtle cues that might indicate underlying strengths or challenges. This goes far beyond what any standardised test alone can capture.
Why choose a clinician who offers dynamic assessment?
In essence, a dynamic assessment provides a rich, nuanced, and truly personalised understanding of your child. It’s an investment in:
Accuracy: Leading to a more precise diagnosis and understanding of his or her unique profile.
Tailored support: Enabling the creation of highly individualised therapy goals that truly meet your child where he or she is and gently guide him or her forward.
Empowerment: You’ll leave with not just answers, but also practical strategies and a clear path forward, feeling confident and informed.

Many parents notice speech errors when their children are toddlers. At that stage it often feels quite normal. Young children are still learning the sounds of their language, and those early mispronunciations can be very endearing.
But as children grow older, parents sometimes begin to wonder:
‘Should my child still be speaking like this?’
A common concern I hear from families is that their child is still difficult to understand even after starting school. Sometimes it is a parent who notices it first. Other times it is a teacher who gently mentions that classmates occasionally struggle to understand what a child is saying.
When this happens, parents naturally wonder whether it is something their child will grow out of, or whether some extra support might help.
When should children’s speech be clear?
Children learn speech sounds gradually over several years. Some sounds develop earlier, while others take longer to master.
By the time children reach five to six years of age, most of their speech should be clear enough for unfamiliar adults to understand. There may still be a few tricky sounds developing (such as /R/ or /TH/), but overall speech should be fairly easy to follow.
If a child is frequently difficult to understand at school age, it can sometimes indicate that a speech sound difficulty has persisted beyond the stage when it would normally resolve on its own.
Why some children remain hard to understand
There are several reasons why speech clarity may still be developing in older children.
Phonological patterns
Some children continue to use speech patterns that are typical of younger children. For example:
saying ‘tat’ instead of ‘cat’
saying ‘doe’ instead of ‘go’
leaving sounds out of words
These patterns are called phonological processes. They are a normal part of early speech development, but when they persist into the school years they can make speech difficult for others to understand.
Difficulty producing specific sounds
Other children may have difficulty producing certain individual sounds clearly. This might include sounds such as:
/S/
/SH/
/R/
/TH/
These difficulties are called articulation difficulties.
A child might understand exactly what they want to say but find it hard to produce the sound accurately with their tongue, lips or airflow.
Motor speech planning challenges
For some children, the difficulty lies in the planning and coordination of the movements needed for speech.
Speech requires very precise timing between the tongue, lips, jaw and breath. If the brain finds it difficult to organise these movements consistently, speech can sound unclear or inconsistent.
In some cases this may relate to Childhood Apraxia of Speech, although only a full assessment can determine this.
Why clarity matters for school-age children
Speech clarity becomes particularly important once children start school.
At this stage, children are:
Answering questions in class
Talking with friends
Reading aloud
Developing confidence in communication
When speech is difficult to understand, children sometimes become more hesitant to speak, particularly in group situations.
This can affect confidence and participation, even when the child has lots of ideas they would like to share.
The good news: speech can improve
The encouraging news is that speech sound difficulties can often improve significantly with the right support.
Speech therapy focuses on helping children:
Learn how sounds are produced
Practise accurate speech movements
Understand how sounds change meaning in words
Build consistency through structured practice
Different children benefit from different therapy approaches. Some need support with phonological patterns, while others benefit from more motor-based practice that strengthens speech coordination.
Often therapy combines several strategies to support the child’s individual speech profile.
When to seek advice
If your child is already at school and you find that people outside the family often struggle to understand them, it can be helpful to seek advice from a speech and language therapist.
A detailed assessment can help identify:
Which sounds are causing difficulty
Whether patterns such as fronting or sound substitutions are present
Whether motor planning challenges may be contributing
Which therapy approach is likely to be most effective
Early support can help children develop clearer speech and greater confidence in communication.
Every child’s speech journey is different
Speech development is not the same for every child. Some children master speech sounds quickly, while others need a little more guidance along the way.
The important thing is that support is available when children need it.
With the right strategies and practice, many children make excellent progress and develop speech that is clearer, more confident and easier for others to understand. If you are concerned about your child’s speech clarity or ongoing speech sound errors, a speech and language assessment can help identify the underlying difficulty and guide the most appropriate support.

I am a neurodiversity affirming therapist and I love and endorse play-based therapy. I use it alongside a strengths-focused approach in all my sessions. Find out why we should use these transformative therapy methodologies in all our work and play with our children.
I always have a range of different toys and activities up my sleeve so that when one toy is no longer interesting, that’s fine. ‘Look here’s a new one, how about we try this one?’ When therapy feels like play, children are more likely to be engaged and attentive, which leads to better outcomes.
By using play as a context for Speech and Language Therapy we can create opportunities for children to use and practise their communication skills in a natural, real-life setting. This helps bridge the gap between the therapy room and everyday life.
Goals and targets
What about goals and targets I hear you say? Of course, as Speech and Language Therapists we always have our goals for any particular child. They can be speech goals (we want Bobbi to produce a ‘k’ sound at the end of words) or communication goals (we want Fatima to ask for something by pointing to it rather than grabbing it). And these goals can be achieved where there is a reciprocation and a positive, playful relationship between the adult and the child. That relationship comes through play and fun.
Play and fun
Play is how a child interacts and learns. If it’s fun, interesting, exciting or pleasurable then that is where the magic happens. And that is what we need to return to repeatedly and then see if we can fold our targets into the activity as we go.
As soon as we expect our child to do something and we try and shape their behaviours towards a certain outcome we no longer ‘play’. We are now in teaching mode, where we direct and where we are ‘in charge’. As a neurodiversity affirming therapist, I believe that all play is valid. We must not get into the trap of thinking that only functional play is valid, that there is only one way to play with that car ramp/puzzle/potato head. Our autistic children often need to play in a particular way to navigate their world and we must not try and stop that.
When we affirm and validate our child’s play and copy their play with enthusiasm and respect then, in my experience, all children regardless where they are on the neurodiversity spectrum will begin to engage with us, copy us, and learn how to communicate effectively about things that matter to them.
Play-based therapy allows therapists to tailor interventions to each child’s unique interests and abilities. This individualised approach increases the likelihood of success and progress.
Strengths-Focused Speech Therapy
Strengths-focused therapy emphasizes a child’s strengths and abilities rather than their deficits. It recognises that every person has unique strengths that can be harnessed to overcome challenges.
Focusing on strengths helps us build a positive self-image. This is especially important for children with communication disorders, as it can boost their confidence and self-esteem.
When we encourage children to play in ways that they enjoy and are good at they feel empowered and more in control of their lives and play. This can lead to increased motivation and a sense of ownership over their progress.
Now, imagine the powerful impact that can be achieved by combining play-based therapy and strengths-focused therapy in speech therapy sessions. This dynamic combination brings out the best of both worlds. It creates a therapeutic environment that is not only effective but also enjoyable for children and their families.
As Speech Therapists we can use the child’s strengths and interests as a foundation for play-based activities. This personalisation not only makes therapy more engaging but also more effective.
An example
Charlie, a 3-year-old with social communication challenges, had a deep interest in anything that spins. We used this strength and interest to create a variety of spinning activities. As he is allowed to engage in his spinners, we can practise lots of speech and language and provide great phrases alongside his interest and activities: Ready steady go! Stop! ‘another one’ ‘the red one’ ‘again again’ ‘I love it’ ‘it’s a spinner’ ‘Charlie loves this toy’ ‘it’s going fast’ ‘it’s so fun’ etc..
Over time Charlie started to copy some of these word models and then used them to create his own little phrases, such as ‘the blue one again’. When this occurred, we felt like celebrating because it had come naturally and appropriately to the situation without any coercion or direction. That is what communication is about! Well done Charlie!
Conclusion
Play-based and strengths-focused speech therapy approaches are powerful tools and by combining these approaches, we create a therapeutic environment that is not only effective but also enjoyable and empowering for our clients.
