Hey Speech Language Pathologists! If you are looking for some fun speech therapy activities that have a fun bat theme, then you have come to the right place! We all know how much fun it can be to use themes in our speech therapy sessions – they are a great way to get our students and children engaged and having fun! I see so many fun ideas surrounding fall and Halloween and thought – lets compile some bat themed speech therapy activities as well!
And YES – I have a really fun bat themed speech therapy freebie for you today! So many speech therapist friends have been telling me that they are working hard on WH Questions with multiple students on their caseload – so I came up with this fun craft – When a Bat Asks a Question. Use the WH Question prompts from the little bats, and as your student or child answers the chatty bats questions, they can glue them into their bat cave! My focus was on creating a great language activity, while also giving the students something to do with their hands – gluing and flying the bat around. So check fine motor skills off the list as well! Download this FREE bat themed speech therapy activity below!

A FUN FIND FOR YOU! Check out this LIVE Cam of Bats flying in and out of the Bracken Cave entrance to get your students excited for their bat themed speech activities!
