Delayed Speech and a SALT Shaped Light

We have a fantastic update about Boo and her speech.
Boo starts preschool in September, and the Nursery Nurse agreed that her speech is starting to impact on other aspects of her development, so she sent a referral through to SALT (the Speech And Language Therapists) which has been accepted, so in the next 8-10 weeks she should start sessions with them. Meanwhile the pre-school will encourage her to use structured signs in the form of 'Tiny Talk' to make up the deficit in her communication.
An interesting development is that Bel has started making her own little noises and babble, and Boo is copying her, which actually seems to be helping her speech develop so it will be interesting to see if this flips a switch for her.
