What age should my kid be able to say the TH sound?
Children typically are able to correctly produce the TH sound around 6 years old.
Is the TH sound a voiced or voiceless sound?
There are two variations of the TH sound: voiced and voiceless. The voiced “th” (“them) and the voiceless “th” (“thing”). To have the child feel a difference between the two, have them put their hand on their/your throat while saying each of the words above.
We are working on creating an individual page for both the voiced and voiceless “th”.
Is the TH sound a Lingua Dental sound?
Yes, the TH sound is a Lingua Dental sound.
Is the TH sound a fricative?
Yes, the TH sound is a fricative.
How do I make the TH sound?
How to make the “th” sound:
- Place your tongue between your top and bottom teeth.
- If the word has a voiced “th” sound, have the child “turn their motor on” or “make the buzzing noise”
- Blow air out, and it is going to escape between your tongue and teeth.
Tricks and Tips for producing the /b/ sound:
- Tell the child they can stick their tongue out at you, but not too far!
- Next have the child bite down on their tongue, but not too hard!
- Tell the child to take a deep breath in, and then blow out the air like a dragon.
- A fun challenge is to see who can make the longest “th” dragon sound, or see who can make the most dragon sounds in 10 or 30 seconds.
- If the child is either sticking their tongue out too far or not far enough during their “th” attempts, place a lollipop in front of their lips where their tongue should be.(it make take some trial and error to find the perfect spot for them!)
- To visually show the child how we explosively release air from our mouths to produce the “th” sound, hold a piece of string in front of their mouths, and have them try to move the string with the release of air.
- The “th” sound can also be referred to as the flat tire (think of the sound of a tire or ball deflating) sound if the child is more into bikes and cars.
