Practicing at Home with Your Child

Tips for practicing speech sounds at home and tracking your child's progress

Sound Safari makes it easy to practice speech sounds at home between therapy sessions.

Getting started: Select your child's profile and choose the target sound and activity your therapist recommended.

Tips for effective home practice:

  • Keep sessions short — 5-10 minutes is ideal for young children

  • Make it fun — Try the matching game or spinner wheel

  • Practice regularly — Short daily sessions beat one long weekly session

  • Encourage, don't correct — Praise effort and model the correct sound naturally

  • Follow your therapist's guidance — Focus on assigned sounds and positions

Homework: If your therapist assigns homework, you'll find it in your child's profile. Complete the assigned words and results are automatically shared.

Tracking progress: View practice history and accuracy trends in the Progress tab on your child's profile.
