What is auditory bombardment?

Auditory bombardment is an exercise in which children hear a target sound accurately produced and several times in short period of time. For example, reading a story that has numerous occurrences of the target sound is "bombarding" the child with that particular sound. This gives the adult the opportunity to model, emphasize and repeat the sound correctly for the child to hear.

Other examples include the memory game, magnetic fishing game or Bingo games which are specifically created around one target sound; all the pictures begin with the same sound!
