The episode I have planned for you today is all about echoic control, and getting your child to talk or talk more. I’ve noticed that teaching your child words is where a lot of parents and professionals get stuck, so I’ve come up with my top five tips to get echoic control.
For those of you who don’t already know what echoic control is, it is when you say a word or phrase, and your child or clients repeat it exactly or close enough. In my experience, once you have echoic control usually is when the flood gates open to an explosion of speech! Overtime, your child will build a larger vocabulary and will be able to convey their needs and wants better.
These five tips are things I’ve picked up over the last two decades. When I first started trying to get echoic control with my clients, I felt like I was making every mistake in the book. Along the way I learned what worked with them and what didn’t work with them, and those same things have helped me tremendously throughout my career.
