Question My son is of 5 yrs and recently we found that he cannot speak words with 'SH' like shoes, shape, shut... instead he says sooz, sape, sut...
apart from this he can clearly speak everything and has no speech problem.
we've tried a lot but could not make it better. kindly suggest what can be done in this case.
Answer Speech development is not my expertise. You should speak to someone at your school who can recommend a speech person.
I would suggest that you might try to sing the "sh" sound to familar tunes like Twinkle Twinkle or Itsy Bitsy Spider.
