Education Station When a child has disordered or delayed speech, it is important to look at the "whole child", and not just to focus on the mouth. Often, children with communication delays and/or disorders have sensory issues or low muscle tone that can effect speech production, feeding, fine and gross motor skills and motor planning. An Occupational Therapist can help you to determine if your child needs assistance in these areas. Also see Sensory Integration Dysfunction.
