What should I do if my child has a lisp?
Unclear pronunciation is what we often call "Lickitung", also known as unclear articulation and inaccurate articulation, which is called "dysarthria" in medicine. Speech correction experts in Chen Qian pointed out that most children with dysarthria can't pronounce clearly, and some children can read words and phrases correctly, but their monosyllabic pronunciation is not accurate in dialogue. We should focus on pronunciation training, and then gradually transition to practicing reading words, words, phrases and sentences. Ask children to speak slowly when reading and speaking, so that they have enough time to complete the pronunciation of each sound.

Speech correction experts in Chen Qian pointed out that oral muscles such as lips, cheeks, tongue, upper and lower jaws are the basis of children's speech. In daily life, speaking, chewing and swallowing all require coordinated movement of oral muscles. When children have speech and hearing characteristics such as difficulty in pronunciation, inaccurate pronunciation, unclear articulation, and excessive nasal sounds, it is necessary to consider whether children have dysarthria. Therefore, speech correction experts in Chen Qian summarized several oral muscle training methods to strengthen the training of children's pronunciation and vocal organs, which parents can practice as daily family training.

The specific training methods are as follows:

1. Lip training

Show the children pouting, grinning, bulging cheeks and smacking, and let them practice.

2. Tongue training

Let children do tongue stretching and tongue closing exercises first, and then gradually expand to lick, wrap, bounce and top cheek, so as to mobilize tongue muscle movement and make the tongue more flexible.

3. Mandibular training

Guide children to open their mouths, close their mouths, move left and right, move back and forth, and buckle their teeth up and down to improve the control of their jaws when pronouncing.

4. facial massage

By pressing, rubbing, rubbing, bouncing, pinching and other techniques, such as rubbing the mouth wheel, pinching the face, rubbing the chin, bouncing the cheek, rubbing the cheek, patting the face, etc., the motor function of the muscles in the pronunciation part can be improved.

Generally speaking, oral muscle training is to fully mobilize oral muscle movement by blowing, licking and sucking. Parents can introduce these training skills into the game after their children have basically mastered it, such as blowing bubbles, feathers, candles, streamers, drinking water through thin straws, drinking milk and so on. Let the children practice while playing, and the training effect will be better.
