First, the child will not speak for a long time to upset his parents
After Guo Guo was born, I took her for a month, because of work reasons we had to find a nanny to take the child, my husband and I are highly educated, for the IQ of our family Guo Guo, we never worried, until Guo Guo was one and a half years old, we found out that something was wrong.
My colleague and I took maternity leave together, their daughter and our daughter were three or four days apart, when the child was almost one and a half years old, my colleague asked me if Guo Guo could say simple words, I was stunned to hear this, our family Guo Guo even did not call my parents.
Usually it is "aaaaaah", I have always thought that it is normal for a child to be one and a half years old and cannot speak, and when I hear the words of my colleagues, I hurriedly called my mother and asked her if she could not speak normally?
My mother said: "Your brother's children can hum songs at the age of one and a half, but don't worry, the older generation says that it is good for children to talk late, and children who talk late have higher IQs." ”
My mother's explanation is still not at ease, after talking to my husband he is also very worried, afraid that there is really something wrong with Guoguo, I took a leave of absence the next day to take Guoguo to the hospital, the doctor said that Guoguo did not have a stunted situation, I was curious to ask him why Guoguo has not been able to speak, the doctor asked about the situation of my family and finally analyzed the reason.
I and my husband work is particularly busy, Guo Guo has been carried by the nanny, nanny Gui Sister usually does not like to talk, will not take the initiative to talk to Guo Guo, every time is to the point to feed guo guo milk powder, feed, and then cook for the family.
Guo Guo has always been sitting alone on the carpet playing, my husband and I will talk to Guo Guo, but we come home from work for about two hours or so Guo Guo is going to sleep, and there is very little to say to Guo Guo, which causes the child to not speak until now.
Second, speaking late is not a manifestation of high IQ
I asked the doctor: Is there a relationship between the child's opening of the mouth sooner or later and the child's IQ? The doctor said that the child's morning and evening speech has little to do with IQ.
Because each child's language function development is different, some will be earlier, some will be later, but children who speak early will have better language talent, and children who speak late may not have good language talent, affecting children's future interpersonal relationships.
The child's speech is controlled by the Broca area of the brain sooner or later, and if parents want their children to speak early, they can develop the Broca area of the child's brain.
Third, how to let the child speak early
Under normal circumstances, there are four periods of children's language development, 0 to 1 year old is the preparatory period, that is, the period when the child is learning language, 1 to 2 years old is the language development period, this time the child can already understand the words of adults, 2 to 3 years old is the second stage of language development, 3 to 6 years old is the complete period, this time the child speaks fluently, can already approach the adult.
Of course, not all children are like this, or depending on the situation, parents can also use some methods to help children speak early.
For the problem that Guo Guo is one and a half years old and can't speak, I have a headache, and I have thought of a lot of ways, at the beginning I will let Guo Guo watch cartoons and let her listen to the voice, but the cartoons speak too fast, the child can't keep up at all, and it may cause the child's attention to be distracted after a long time.
The husband said that he could buy some lessons with the children to talk, these classes spoke slowly, but the children could not listen to it, and after a while they played with their hands there.
I consulted with the children's doctor, who said that he could take the child to read the picture book, encourage the child to speak through the picture book, and combine the pictures and language in the picture book to help the child learn better.
Encourage your child to speak by reading picture books
I began to read picture books with Guoguo, and the doctor said that when reading with children, they must read very slowly, so that they can meet the child's cognition, otherwise it is useless, I will take Guoguo to read little by little, and when I read some stories, I will also say something to Guoguo.
For example, the little one in the picture book wants to hug the uncle, I will say to Guo Guo: "Baby, you see if you are the same as the little one, you have to go out to your parents to hug, you can directly tell your parents when you go out to hug, directly say that your parents will better understand", at this time, Guo Guo always seems to understand me.
The next day at noon, I took her to the supermarket, just downstairs she threw herself into my arms to hug, I did not pick her up, but guided her to say "want mother hug", she could not say these words, anxious to cry, I guided her again, and finally she said "Mom, hug" two words, although the words are not clear, but this is also a kind of progress.
Combine pictures to talk to the child
There are a lot of colorful pictures in the picture book, I will take the fruit to look at the picture to learn to speak, the child sees the real thing and the picture, the learning efficiency will be higher, which is why the child first learned to say mom and dad, because mom and dad appeared the most frequently in life.
When I look at the picture with Guo Guo, I will teach her what it is and how to read it, and when I meet the physical object of this picture outside, I will tell her how to read this, so that she can remember in repetition, just like this, after more than two months, Guo Guo can already say a lot of words, although it is very tiring to take the child for two months, but looking at Guo Guo can talk, the old mother is very satisfied in her heart.
0 to 3 years old is the golden period of children's brain development, but also the key period of children's language development, parents must seize this period to cultivate children's language expression ability.
Parents can cultivate their children's language expression ability in advance, and language expression ability is linked to their children's emotional intelligence, which will help their children a lot in the future.
