SLP Mom Reads Harold and the Purple Crayon | Real Speech Therapy Storytime

Welcome back to story time with Julie. My daughter and I are reading Harold and the Purple Crayon — one of the most imaginative toddler books ever written. Watch what happens when you read a book with almost no words to a toddler. This one is all about what she brings to it. What you'll see in this video: 👀 How a nearly wordless book invites a toddler to supply the language herself 👀 Real spontaneous comments and reactions — and how I respond without interrupting the flow 👀 What imagination-based engagement looks like in a real SLP storytime 💡 Why this book: Harold barely says a word — which means every page is an open invitation for your child to fill the silence. This is a fill-in-the-blank book from cover to cover. 📖 Harold and the Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson 📚 Get the book: → Amazon: https://amzn.to/4olR6MXBookshop.org (supports indie bookstores): https://bookshop.org/shop/Thespeechth... *Affiliate links — I earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
