If your child is working on producing the S Cluster sound appropriately, then reading books with these sounds is a great activity to do together. Reading books with your child’s target sound will help give him many good models of the sound (a great auditory bombardment activity). When you’re reading the book to your child, please make sure to emphasize the S Cluster sound in all target words. You can remind your child to produce all the sounds of the words, such as ssss-tar (star). Below are five S Cluster sound books bombarded with the sound to help improve your child’s articulation skills.
