How to accelerate your child\u2019s key developmental milestone: language<\/p>\n

Helping toddlers expand their language skills<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Consider these tips for nurturing your child\u2019s language skills, regardless of age (5 weeks or 5 years old):<\/p>\n

Listen to music together. <\/strong>This help kids learn the rhythm of language and encourages movement and interaction. His own song requests are encouraged!<\/p>\n

Play, play, play.<\/strong> Language development is very closely related to play. It is around the same time-period that kids develop symbolic play (e.g. holding up a banana & pretending it\u2019s a phone) that kids also begin to form their first words (around 12-13 months old).<\/p>\n

Remove negative talk. <\/strong>It\u2019s important to encourage ALL attempts at expression, and we all respond best to positive framing. Resist the urge to fact-check your little guy when he tells you he wants the pink crayon to color the grass. J<\/p>\n

Practice turn-taking. <\/strong>When you imitate the words or sounds they\u2019re using, it shows them that you hear them and approve of what they\u2019re saying. Even if it\u2019s just babbling back-and-forth or acknowledging when they point to something they want, this helps them develop important conversation skills.<\/p>\n

Tell stories. <\/strong>Make up colorful stories that keep kids captivated. You might be surprised by how well they follow the characters and the plot.<\/p>\n

Go on field trips. <\/strong>Whether it\u2019s the zoo, a museum or just an unfrequented store, adventures like these help open their eyes to new wonders and the words that describe them.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s almost too simple: enjoy your children in slow, small but significant ways and they\u2019ll be great orators in no time. Keep it up, Mama.<\/p>\n
