Early Intervention Myofunctional Therapy BOOM Cards that reinforce tongue function! These FOUR activity cards can be used as visual prompts and rewards to encourage lingual range of motion, coordination, strength, and stability. These recommended exercises are part of the Mini Myo Early Intervention Program, which was developed by Juniper Speech Therapy to use with children in the early intervention population (ages 2-5) who may be at risk of developing an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder. Using these colorful and fun BOOM cards during both virtual and in-person therapy sessions can help to encourage and reinforce the target skills you are working on! These activities should not replace skilled therapy with a trained professional. It is recommended that the professional identify the exercises and the practice frequency that are appropriate for the client's specific goals and create an individualized treatment plan. If you are concerned about your child's speech, feeding and oral development, please seek out a full evaluation from a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist with experience in treating Myofunctional and Feeding Disorders. NOTE: A BOOM Learning account is needed to purchase and use BOOM Cards.
