Another Speech session yesterday for Demi. Her speech therapist regularly uses her typically developing kids in her therapy as models and play partners. So yesterday, Demi played with Evie (almost 4yo). And she actually played! (most of the time) The therapist was looking specifically for verbal/non-verbal initiation of conversation and responses. Demi stayed on one particular topic for at least 10 exchanges, asking questions, answering, making corrections.
After that first "exercise" she didn't do quite as well, but I believe that may have been because the games were not as familiar to her. I know she's still delayed and has a long way to go, but I believe the pace of progress has increased.
