Another book I like to read this time of year in therapy sessions is "Where is Baby's Pumpkin?" from the Karen Katz lift-the-flap series. It is highly relatable, simple, predictable, and visually and tactilely appealing. It uses Halloween-themed vocabulary and embeds spatial concepts (in, behind, under, etc.). Depending on the student(s), you can elicit various levels of language to make a request from the child to see what is behind the flaps (ex. See, I want to see, I want to look under the bed).

Where is Baby's Pumpkin?
I am the SLP at the only state-approved program for Deaf and Hard of Hearing students in New Hampshire that utilizes both American Sign Language and Spoken English. We are housed in the Nashua Public Schools, servicing preschool to high school. I have been specializing in speech, language, and auditory skill development therapy for children with cochlear implants, hearing aids, and BAHAs for the past 25 years. While this is my passion, I also service general and intensive needs students with a variety of speech and language challenges.
