what toys and products are best ?

I'll try to explain how and why I use certain toys, books, or products that I have had a lot of success with in terms of eliciting language. Not all toys are created equal! 

The Ruff House Tactile toy

I made a video review for the Ruff House toy. I use this toy often with my Early Intervention kids (0-3 years old). It's a pretty basic toy. It is a dog house and inside are 10 sets of different textured bones and a cute dog. 

Here's how I use it!
Expressive:
  • Single function words: 'in' and 'out'
  • Phrase Expansion: 'put in/put in house' 'take out/ take out house' 
  • Asking and telling: "I got a ___ bone!" "I want the soft one"
  • Labeling colors and textures
  • Yes/No "Is this the dog? Is this the blue one?"

Receptive:
  • Understanding same vs. different
  • Identifying colors (i.e. point to/show me/get/take the blue bone)
  • Identifying textures
  • Positional (i.e. Put the dog in front of the house)

Social:
  • My turn/your turn

Sensory:
  • Bumpy, soft, silky, smooth, rough textures for hands and arms

Here is a link to more info!

    Just a reminder that I don't get paid from anyone to endorse anything. I just write about what I like to use and what works for me. ​
