C-C-C-Tar

Sean has been saying "tar" for the word "car" for a long time now. I asked the speech therapist if that was developmentally normal and of course she said it was. I did notice that at the end of words Sean was producing the c/k sound so I knew he could actually say the sound he just wasn't. I have been encouraging him to try to say "c-c-c-car" and he will reply with, "c-c-c-tar" ha ha. So, I gave up and let it go. From time to time he would do the same thing, "c-c-c-truck" for words that didnt' even start with c which I found to be hilarious. Well, yesterday while playing with his car, he actually said, "cars" for the first time. I still hear him say "tars" sometimes but I guess we are making progress!
