Are you wondering how to stimulate your child’s language development? Try following their lead.

There are many ways you can do this:
- respond quickly to them with interest
- imitate, interpret or comment on what they’re doing
- join in and play with them

Play like a child. Go with the flow and follow your little one’s interests. Use fun sounds and words as these are easy to remember and understand (because they’re usually said with lots of animation).

I don’t know who needs to hear this but they can hear you!

Keep this in mind when discussing their skills and challenges. It’s important to be realistic, but they also need to hear that they are wonderful people and loved.

Are you wondering how to stimulate your child’s language development? Try using everyday routines and activities. A routine is something that stays pretty much the same each time you do it.

These could be:
- People games
- Songs and rhymes
- Daily activities like bathing or bed-time

Ways you can keep routines in interaction the same:
- Start the same way each time.
- Plan your child’s turn.
- Repeat the same words, sounds or actions.
- Keep the end of the routine the same.

WHY WE WAIT:
Your child has to understand everyday vocabulary in order to use them themselves. Giving them 3-5 seconds of wait time allows them time to process and understand the vocabulary and once they’ve had this time they can respond. It can be hard for us to stop talking and just listen to our little ones, but it is SO important that we do.

Are you wondering how to stimulate your child’s language development? Try changing the way you play with your little one. Play is one of the most important ways that your child learns language and interaction skills and it is way more effective if YOU are creating connections with your little one during these interactions.

TOYS are important, but you play a role too.
