Speech with Lisa

It's so fun stimulating language with music! It can work with younger children or with older adults. Singing popular nursery rhymes etc. is a great way to help young children learn some of the cadence and rhymes in a language. Singing familiar and new songs with older adults can help stimulate language as well-- it can help older adults remember an experience with a certain song or help spark new neural pathways as adults learn new lyrics. What's your favorite song?
