My 6 year old daughter has a lisp in her speech....?

Question

It's not real bad but still somewhat noticeable. What are some vocal exercises to help rid her of it?

Answer 1

I think what would be best is talk to her pediatrician about a speech therapy consult. A speech therapist could teach you techniques to help her. it would also be good to take her to a PEDIATRIC dentist...they often deal with this type of problem. My daughter had a lisp when she was little, and the pediatric dentist made a litle wire appliance that fit behind her front teeth. She wore that for several months. It helped change her speech pattern and her lisp went away. So, try the doc and the dentist.
