Speech therapy for 3 years olds should be all about exploring toys whilst doing some structured tasks at the table - generally, this is when children start to sit at the table. A good rule of thumb is 50% on the table, and 50% off the table playing.
Toys that you can use for developing play skills:
Cookset
Doctor’s kit
Carparks
Dollhouse
Vending machine
Zingo
Smatch
Not limited to the above, you can use any toy that has some sort of sequence to it. For example for the washing machine kit, you have to wash, hang, and then iron. And also anything that requires pretending, such as a doctor’s kit where children take on different roles.
What language level is your child at?
Is he non-verbal? Teach imitation, PECS, and gestures to help him communicate better
Is she at the 1-word level?
Target more verbs and link into VO
Teach more subjects and target SV and then SVO
Target specific sentence structures e.g. “someone is verb-ing something” - “Mommy is eating an apple”
Instead of “what, target questions like: “who”, “where”, “what function”, “what doing”. Ask situational questions, like “who’s wearing the blue shirt” so that he actually has to think!
Longer sentences - recast what they say into longer sentences. Whenever she says a sentence, say it once more but in a different way, longer or in the correct grammatical structure.

In general, find a qualified speech therapist to know the reason why your child can’t pronounce certain sounds. Because the way of treating these sounds depends on knowing the reason.
Whilst waiting for speech therapy to be available you build phonological awareness with the following:
Read books that rhyme
Clap at each syllable
Sing more songs together
