Love
Child growth
Children are the bond of the family, the continuation of love, and the hope of our lives. Having a healthy, happy, lively child is the hope of each of us. However, many parents do not fulfill their due parenting responsibilities in the child's development stage, resulting in various developmental delays in the infant stage, such as language development delays, many grandparents of the older generation also use "noble people are late, words like gold" as an excuse, many people think that as children grow up, it will be normal. Many parents also ask similar questions. What is language delay? What can we do for them?
There are many causes of language delay, some are primary and some are secondary. More children also have other problems, such as behavioral problems, cognitive comprehension problems, and autistic tendencies. These issues must be trained and intervened at the same time.
What is language delay?
Language retardation refers to children in the stage of language development who, for various reasons, are unable to understand, express and communicate language as normal children. It is a state in which children's language development lags behind the actual age level.
Clinical manifestations are language delay and language comprehension or expression disorders. When a child's language comprehension and expression skills are significantly behind the standards that should be met at the appropriate age, it is called language development delay.
How to train your baby's language skills?
1. Respond to your child's words with positive words
When a child speaks intermittently and vaguely, parents do not interrupt, do not speak for him, and do not worry about correcting his pronunciation. Absorption and then imitation are characteristics of infant language learning. After the child listens, he will naturally correct it. If it is always denied by adults, children will slowly lose the confidence to express themselves actively. Don't let your child read with you over and over again, as this will reduce your child's interest in learning to speak. For every attempt he makes, right or wrong, he should be encouraged.
2. Learn to be friends with your child
To help children talk to their children, parents cannot force their children to speak all the time. At this time, parents can change their identities and learn to be friends with their children. In ordinary life, parents can often communicate with their children, share some happy things, give children more language stimulation, let children have the desire to speak, and create a good language environment for children.
3. Use fairy tale picture books
We can read picture books with our kids. One and a half years old can say complete sentences. Reading picture books has many benefits, which can cultivate children's observation ability, thinking ability, memory, language expression ability, etc. By reading picture books, children can recognize new things, perceive different colors, and feel different. Children learn language communication skills by seeing, touching, listening, and reading. When children are young, they are particularly interested in books and have a strong learning ability. Children's language development is gradual, and the most indispensable part of this process is the guidance of parents.
