Is your child finding it hard to speak? They cannot form the words to talk to you even after multiple attempts. If you’re going through this or know someone whose child is facing this problem, let me tell you that this issue is treatable! When your child cannot form words to communicate, it doesn’t mean that they are late talkers; it is happening because of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS).
Verbal communication is one of the most crucial and basic forms of communication. Through it, we express our thoughts, share our feelings with another person, give our opinions, and describe what we like and don’t.
However, that is not the case with children who suffer from childhood apraxia of speech (CAS); it is a neurologic speech disorder that primarily affects children and causes them problems with planning and executing a sequence of words together.
Children with apraxia speech disorder face problems producing sounds, syllables, and certain words correctly.

Symptoms of Childhood apraxia of speech in children
- Has a history of late development of its first words and sounds
- Use of a limited number of consonant and vowel sounds
- Have difficulty with longer words
- Has a slow rate of speech
- Excessive/extra stress
- Loss of previously produced words

Virtual Speech Therapy
Since the onset of COVID-19 began, we have been seeing everything being taken to an online platform whether it is classes through online applications or attending seminars, everything has been going digital.
One such thing that has been gaining popularity since is virtual speech therapy, which is conducted on online platforms and that your child can easily take while sitting anywhere.
There are a lot of benefits of virtual speech therapy as it helps to save time and money that would have gone in if you were attending a traditional one-on-one individual therapy session with a therapist.
Virtual speech therapy is conducted in the same way it is traditionally done. It is, however, much opted for by parents as it is difficult to manage kids during the session and take them out for regular sessions.
Virtual therapy helps the child learn through online interpretations and visuals, which not only help them understand things better but also enhance their visual understanding and speaking skills to a much better level.
Virtual speech therapy provides many benefits to its patients, such as saving money and traveling time, the opportunity to join from anywhere, and learning and improving your speech with the help of digital illustrations, pictures, and videos.
