50+ Terrific FREE Speech Therapy Activities You Can Send Home in a Hurry
A huge list of free speech therapy activities you can send for speech and language home practice!
Practicing speech and language skills at home in addition to therapy sessions has always been important for making optimal progress.
This isn’t news to speech-language pathologists. But events like the coronavirus pandemic, natural disasters, and subsequent school closings definitely shined a light on the need for quality resources that can be accessed at home. Not only during emergencies, but for everyday home practice, school breaks, and summer too.
To help out, I’ve compiled an extensive list for you of free speech therapy activities you can find online. Some are online games, many are printables. All are no-prep to make gathering what you need easier for you. Here you go!
