Want to find out how well your child can nasal breathe? Try this!
Have your child hold a popsicle stick between their lips (horizontally) for three minutes while they play or walk around.
Pay attention to things like:
👃How does their breathing sound? Is it audible? Noisy?
👃How does it look? Are their shoulders and chest moving while they breathe?
👃Does it appear effortful at all? Are they having a hard time keeping their lips closed? Do they let out a big sigh when they finish? Do they look relaxed?
You can try it out along with your child too!
Let me know how it goes.
As always, feel free to reach out for support😊
