@emmafontenot_slp: 🚨 Speech Myth #1 “Will sign language delay my toddler’s speech??” ❌ FALSE! This is one of the most common questions I get from parents. Research shows that teaching signs does NOT delay spoken language. In fact, signs can help toddlers communicate their wants and needs, reduce frustration, and support overall language development while speech is still emerging. Remember: communication is communication! 👏 Have you heard this myth before? Let me know in the comments, and stay tuned for Speech Myths Part 2! #SpeechTherapy #intownspeechtherapy
