Children learn very quickly, and most of the social skills acquired by simply imitating their parents. But what if you show an example or explain how it is done is not enough? Among these problems is the ability to pronounce the letter "r".
Today, speech therapists recognize this letter for the most difficult of pronunciation, and it is no wonder that not every kid the strength to cope with her own. Let's look at how to teach the child to say the letter "p" and that parents need to know before embarking on this important task.
First of all, you need to prepare the children of the vocal apparatus for upcoming efforts. Exercises for development of articulation organs can be given a few minutes to half an hour per day, the main thing - do it regularly, preferably - more than once a day. Remember, the main rule of successful education of children - they have to like what they are taught, they should enjoy the process. Therefore, for the development of the muscles of the vocal apparatus is best suited grimacing. It can be turned into an exciting game, very useful for business.
The kid would be happy to represent the expression of a variety of people and small animals, add the language "tube", try to get them to conic nose and so on. The next step - to teach a child to pronounce the sound "p" separately. It is also better to arrange in a playful way - ask for crumbs to show how the wolf growls, rumbles like a tractor and so on. Pre-need to maximize available and explain in detail what position to occupy tongue against the palate, as is necessary to slightly open the mouth when pronouncing the "r".
As a rule, the language should lightly touch the palate just above the upper gum, but due to the different structure of the mouth, jaw and larynx position may vary slightly. After the baby learns "growl", it must be trained to build in "p" into syllables. "Pa, po py", etc. Then - geminate and tune in these syllables ( "ra-ra-ra ',' ru-ru"), it is desirable to come up with something rhythmic, it would be fun to repeat or even humming. Next - offer crumbs to combine syllables with a "p", and then - to say the simple words ( "wheel", "Rook", "role").
If the child passes all these steps, it will not have problems pronouncing the "r" in any words. And most importantly, what should be remembered parents - children imitate adults. To stimulate the child to learn, you have to be an example for him. Always clearly pronounce the letter "p", pay attention to the kid that he should learn how to pronounce the sound is not less clearly, but do not force it, and do not scoff. If a child sees that it is important for you, he wants to learn how to speak himself.
