If your child is using 1 to 2 words, try matching your language to that stage. Long complex sentences can be harder for little learners to process even when they understand more than they can say.

"Let's go put your shoes on so we can go outside!"
We say this every day. But for a child still building their language skills, long sentences can be overwhelming and harder to imitate.

"Shoes on."
"Go outside."
Short, simple phrases are easier for children to understand, remember, and eventually imitate on their own.

As your child's language grows you can slowly build up your sentences too. Think of it as meeting them where they are and gently helping them move forward one word at a time.
