If these and other mispronunciations of the R sound occur in your childâs language, then Iâm sure youâve encountered a few frustrations in trying to correct it. Did you know that the R sound is one of the most commonly used sounds in English? No wonder that pesky sound (or lack of it) keeps getting messed up in childrenâs speech. The R sound is typically one of the last sounds to be mastered by children, often not maturing until ages 6 or 7.
