To help your child pronounce one of the most difficult letters correctly, practice with him daily. Remember, the main thing is persistence and regularity.
Exercise 1. Preparatory. First you need to develop the mobility of the tongue. To do this, let the child first raise the tip of the tongue to the upper teeth, then lower it to the lower ones. And so 10 times slowly, 10 times a little faster and 10 times at a fast pace. After that, let the child count with the tongue first the upper teeth, then the lower ones.
Exercise 2. Horse. Teach your child to imitate the sound of hooves by clicking with their tongue. You can play a game with your child. Tell a story, and when you say the word "horse" - he should click his tongue. An example of a story: “We gave a little boy a horse. The horse was very beautiful. The horse had a long mane. The boy approached the horse and stroked the horse's mane …."
Exercise 3: Monkey. Ask your baby to stretch his tongue towards the chin, towards the nose, towards the right cheek, towards the left cheek. Offer your child games - you name a part of the body, and he should reach it with his tongue.
Exercise 4. Soap bubbles. Have your child inflate different sized balloons to develop their respiratory systems. Alternate inflating balloons with soap bubbles every other day.
Exercise 5. Machine gun. Teach your child to portray a machine gun. To do this, you must pronounce the sounds "d" and "t" together. Slow at first, then faster.
Exercise 6. On setting the sound. Have the child touch the tip of the tongue to the hard part of the palate, inhale air through the nose, and exhale forcefully through the mouth. Make sure that he does not open his tongue from the palate.
Exercise 7. Drum. Have the child raise his tongue by the top teeth and tap his gums while saying "d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d." The lower jaw should remain motionless.
Exercise 8. Difficult, but effective. Make sure that the child does not get tired. The child needs to open his mouth, raise his tongue to the palate and stretch the bridle to the limit. With your thumb and forefinger, have the child firmly press the sides of the tongue against the palate. The middle part of the tongue and bridle should be free. Now the child must forcefully blow out the air with the inclusion of a voice. You get the sound "tzh". Have the child repeat the exercise, gradually increasing the air pressure. The sound "tzh" will gradually turn into "tr".
Exercise 8. Learning poems. If the child already knows how to read, let him just read different poems, where the sound "R" is often found. if he still does not know how to read, memorize simple poems with him. For example:
Trolleybus
Slowed down
By the sidewalk
Blue trolleybus, Round headlights.
Pedestrians came in
Only the doors opened
And in passengers
Everyone has turned."
Exercise 6 "tongue twisters". We remember and memorize our favorite tongue twisters. Let the baby say them slowly at first, subsequently increasing the rhythm.
Let me remind you of a few tongue twisters: "Irinka's tangerines, Irinka's tangerines"; “Karl stole the corals from Klara, and Klara stole the clarinet from Karl”; “I rode the Greek across the river, sees the Greek in the river cancer. He thrust the Greek hand into the river, cancer by the hand of the Greek - tsap."
Let the lessons with your kid bring him pleasure, and then the letter "r" will definitely work out!
