4 Fool-Proof Tips for Exploding Your Child's Language

So your baby has invented a new language, which only YOU understand. Whilst this form of symbolic communication should be applauded, you wish baby could be understood by everyone. And the good news is, there is a simple strategy you could use to gently get your child to approximate his/her words better.
Modelling is when you combine all language stimulation techniques in order to provide your child with a good display (or model) of what they need to say or how they need to say it. At any given time, you as the parent/caregiver should model the correct form of a word or phrase and ensure you speak slowly and consciously.
If for example, your child is begging to sit on your lap/ or to be picked up. One, you could go ahead and pick them up or two, you could model what they should be saying, e.g. “up” before you picked them up. Or if your child mumbles/babbles whilst pointing to a banana, that’s your big chance to model the word “banana”.
When my first two children were beginning to talk at around 11-15 months, I shortened the word “banana” to “nana”; “water” to “wawa”; “thank you” to “ta”; etc. At the time, my husband was rather worried (more with the first child) because he imagined we were raising a child who would need us to teach the mature versions of her “baby talk”. But, if you’re like my husband, I say, “fear not”.

Hello Pamela, overexposure to screens and under-stimulation is the number 1 cause of speech delay in toddlers. How much screen-time a day are your twin boys exposed to? You might benefit from watching this video on my channel- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i7OTfM-Crbe0qI0.html. You might need to limit your son's exposure to screens. Children below 2 years should not be exposed to screens at all (TV, laptops, smart-phones). Children above 2 years should only be allowed an hour of screen-time a day.

Hello, Thank you for your inquiry. From my experience, children who are delayed in talking are often overexposed to screens and are under-stimulated. You need to cut down his screen-time. Please note that children below 2 years should not be exposed to screens at all and children above 2 years should only be exposed to an hour of screen-time a day. There are some things that you need to start doing and some things you need to stop doing from home, for you to see your child’s speech and language skills develop.
