Moving from single words to simple speech without overwhelm.

When to see a specialist

Little Talker helps kids practice speech regularly at home, but it does not replace evaluation or one-on-one work with a licensed speech therapist if your child has significant speech challenges.

When does my child need S sound exercises?

When the sound is close but needs reinforcement in words and phrases, not when it's completely absent.

What if S is really hard?

A speech therapist can help with initial sound placement. Little Talker is great for regular home practice once the sound is emerging.

How long should we practice at home?

Usually 7–15 minutes a day is enough, as long as sessions feel calm and pressure-free.

Can we try it for free?

Yes, Little Talker includes 5 free lessons.
