Speech Therapy Coloring Book for Non-Talkers: Sound Imitations to Launch Speech: A Coloring Book for Children

The speech therapy book with pictures for coloring is intended for joint work between an adult and a child of preschool age. The manual presents practical material for the preparatory stage of working with children who have speech development delays.... The proposed tasks can also be used for classes with young children without speech disorders. The material of the manual features a systematic approach to eliciting sounds and sound imitations. Original exercises are based on the close connection between thinking, speech, and motor skills, which significantly accelerates speech development. Creative tasks in a game form will help the child not only transition from understanding speech to pronouncing sounds and syllables but also coordinate the muscles of the speech apparatus, develop motor skills, visual and auditory attention, memory, thinking, the intonational side of speech, imagination, and a sense of rhythm.
The manual is addressed to speech therapists, defectologists, parents, and educators.
