Horn #1

Horn #1 is the first and easiest level of the TalkTools Horn Kit hierarchy, a graduated 12-horn program used in Oral Placement Therapy (OPT) to build lip rounding, breath support, and oral motor coordination for speech and feeding goals. Intended for use under the guidance of a qualified therapist as part of the TalkTools Horn Kit program, it provides a gentle, accessible entry point into graded horn blowing activities.
