FINALLY:
From www.ajokeaday.com - 10/08/16:
As a Speech therapist, I
was working with a preschooler on body part identification and
the 'k' sound. To that end, I had him use Play-Doh to make a
sculpture of me. “Is that my neck?” I asked, trying to get him to repeat the word. “No, that’s your chin,” he said. He added more Play-Doh. “Is that my neck?” I asked. “No, that’s your other chin.” |
