A pillar of OPT (Oral Placement Therapy), the Straw Therapy promotes jaw-lip-tongue dissociation through twelve stages of development. It can be used to teach tongue retraction, grading, controlled tongue movements, and lip rounding, among other oral-motor skills. This activity, like the Horn Hierarchy, is fun for clients and appreciated by speech and feeding therapists for its effectiveness and affordability.
Includes one of each straw in TalkTools’ Straw Hierarchy (colors may vary), one replacement Straw #1, two lip blocks, and TalkTools original instruction booklet

Using for oral motor therapy
Excited to try this new tool and incorporate it into our oral motor therapy. My therapist recommended Talk Tools, very happy that parents have a relatively inexpensive way to help their kids with speech delays.
