πŸ₯¦ National Fruit & Vegetable Month is here β€” meet this week's veggie superstar: broccoli!

We know, we know β€” toddlers and broccoli have a reputation πŸ˜„ But here's the secret: make it FUN!

🌿 Call them "little trees"
🌿 Let your child wash and pull apart the florets
🌿 Try dipping in hummus or cheese sauce together

When toddlers are involved in the process, they're so much more likely to try new foods. Even just touching or smelling counts as a win! πŸŽ‰

πŸ“ June is National Fruit & Vegetable Month β€” and we're celebrating all month long!

Each week, we're spotlighting a different fruit or veggie to explore with your little one. This week's pick? The strawberry!

Strawberries are the PERFECT first fruit for toddlers. They're bright red (hello, color learning!), soft enough to eat, and naturally sweet. Try:

🌱 Pointing to the green leaves and saying "stem"
🌱 Letting your toddler wash them in the sink
🌱 Slicing them into a bowl and counting together

Sensory play + language + math β€” all in one snack! πŸ™Œ

Drop a πŸ“ below if your toddler loves strawberries!

Developmental Art & Sensory Ideas for Summer

Simple activities that build big skills β€” outside & mess-friendly!

πŸ’§ Paint with water on the sidewalk β€” a low-pressure sensory intro, perfect for tactile-sensitive kids

πŸ–οΈ Draw with chalk (trace their whole body!) β€” builds body schema awareness and spatial concepts

πŸͺ± Make a mud pie β€” supports tactile tolerance, pretend play, and executive function

🎨 Finger paint outside β€” sensory integration and creative expression at its best

πŸͺ¨ Collect and paint rocks β€” great for categorization, hand-eye coordination, and sustained focus

Save this for the season β€” every messy moment is a learning moment! 🌿

One of the best speech therapy tools you have this summer doesn't cost a thing β€” it's at the park.

Toddlers learn best when they're moving, exploring, and genuinely excited about what's around them. That makes a trip to the park the perfect place to sneak in some real listening and direction-following practice β€” the kind that builds the foundation for following instructions in preschool, staying safe in public, and understanding language in longer, more complex chunks.

The secret is to start simple. One step at a time. "Find a red leaf." That's it. Once your little one gets the hang of it, you layer in a second step: "Find a red leaf and put it in your pocket."

You're not drilling β€” you're playing.

And in between, try a "freeze" moment: everybody stops, gets quiet, and counts the sounds they can hear. Birds, wind, a dog barking two streets over. You'd be surprised how much a toddler will tune in when you make listening feel like a game.
