Infact blowing, sucking and chewing exercises certain muscles around the mouth to help some children to speak. Blowing was one of the activities done when Xav attended the Little Neuro Tree.
So encourage your child to blow bubbles and pieces of tissue paper. In addition, you can teach the child to suck from a straw and encourage him/her to chew solid food.
But Xav didn't like to chew meat. Esp breast meat ! He is fine with the meat from mid joint though.
Here's the first few attempts ! Huff and Puff !! Where are the bubbles?
