"Listening to two lessons about children talking to themselves today, I was very rewarding. Observing the child, the occurrence of Martian language is generally when the child plays by himself, riding a puzzle to play the ball, most of them are not involved in others, try to minimize the child's solitude time, participate in the child's activities, appropriate language interactive game interaction. A training camp mom wrote in her punch card diary.
"The child has recently intervened, in less than a month will say: I want to eat biscuits, I want to drink water, I want to eat noodles, I want coco, I want to pee, the elephant's nose will spray water, little love classmates, my name is ***, I ask how old, will answer 3 years old, know the name of my parents, drive into the garage, the river stinks, will take off my socks, I can not wear diapers during the day, I will hold urine at night, the color recognizes the basic color, the mouth is still clear, there are some words or imitation long sentences will be a little unclear, such as 3, When you say three years old, you are particularly clear, and when you say the number 123, you say it is chan. Excerpt from another mom's punch card diary.
Regarding the baby's late speech or unclear speech, the older generation has a "beautiful" saying, called "noble people speak late". Parents who do not have much experience, if you believe such a statement and take a wait-and-see attitude towards these problems of the baby for a long time, it is very likely that you will miss the golden language development period of the baby, resulting in the child really "late speech".
Language delay will not only affect the baby's social communication ability, but also affect his future reading, comprehension, calculation and other abilities. 0-3 years old is the key period of baby's intellectual development, but also the key period of baby's language ability development, at this time early intervention can achieve the effect of half the effort.
Recognizing the importance of children's language ability and the harm of children's lack of language ability, parents should accompany their children more and help their children improve the situation. Although there is no need to rush to characterize the problems that occur in the child, because the baby says less and is too worried, it is not possible to be a hand-thrower, completely ignore or leave the problems of the child to the institution. Family companionship and care is very important for children, in family life to intervene in children, explore activities that can improve baby language ability, integrate intervention training into daily life, increase the fun of training in the form of games, and achieve the effect of training in parent-child activities.
Here are 10 language games for daily home training, different games can train different oral parts, each game we strive to be interesting, help to enhance the parent-child relationship, attractive to children, the effect is obvious, etc. Parents can choose 2-4 different games with their children every day, cycle through, and cooperate as a whole to achieve the effect of language ability improvement.
1． Blowing tissues, etc. – to help with pronunciation
Blowing paper towels, feathers, trumpets, whistles, harmonica, windmills, balloons, paper boats, bubbles, flutes, etc., these blowing actions can help babies train their mouth muscles, which in turn helps babies practice pronunciation. These are also very interesting activities, just pick a few ways that your baby likes to do.
2． Blowing candles – strengthens the small muscles of the cheeks
Blowing candles uses facial muscles, lung capacity, and the respiratory system, and requires the baby to use enough strength to blow out the candle. Therefore, practicing in this way often can strengthen the muscles in the cheek area of your baby.
During the game, Mom and Dad can line up five candles in a vertical line. Take the form of letting the baby challenge himself, or Mom and Dad challenging the baby, comparing which time to blow more, etc. It can be done step by step, starting with one candle and slowly increasing to five. Don't let the difficulty setting at the beginning be too large, let the baby lose interest.
3. Blowing ping-pong balls - increasing the adjustment of exhalation volume
Different from the previous two practice blowing games, blowing ping-pong balls can effectively improve the adjustment and control of the baby's exhalation.
It is possible to prepare 5 cups, fill them with water and line them up in a vertical line. Put a ping-pong ball into the first cup and let the baby practice blowing the ping-pong ball into the second, third, fourth, and fifth cups in turn. The farther the baby can blow, the better, and the more stable it can fall into the target cup, the better the control.
4． Licking – Tongue movement that promotes the movement of the tongue ties
Meal time can also be used. Mom and Dad can let the baby try to lick the plate after eating, if this does not arouse the baby's interest, you can spread different colors and flavors of the sauce, such as red strawberry jam, blue blueberry sauce, black bean paste, orange marmalade, white salad dressing, etc.
If the baby is more sensitive to shape, mom and dad can also use different sauces as color pens to draw different shapes or patterns to increase the baby's motivation to lick the plate.
Usually, parents can also apply honey, tea oil, etc. (the taste should be able to attract the baby) around the baby's lips, so that the baby unconsciously licks the action. In order to increase the fun in the later stage, Mom and Dad can interact with the baby, with Mom and Dad as the commander and the baby's tongue as the cleaner. Mom and Dad shout "left", "up", "bottom", etc., and the baby obeys mom and dad's instructions and "cleans up" separately. Then Mom and Dad can swap roles with baby.
5. Bulging cheeks – cheek muscle strength
The cheek-pumping movement can strengthen your baby's cheek muscles.
Mom and Dad can take the baby to do bulging and relaxing the left and right cheeks, you can puff up the left cheek for 2 seconds, and then puff up the right cheek for two seconds. You can alternately perform the bulging action one left and one right, or you can direct it by mom and dad to randomly choose which side of the bulging cheek.
6. Vowel four-tone exercises
The 5 vowels a, o, e, i, u, with the four voice parts of the Chinese language, are trained in syllable sounding, and a total of 20 pronunciations can be combined.
Start by training your baby's reading and imitation. After the baby practices well, it is time to play interactive games. For example, mom and dad say a, the baby says the four voice parts in order, and when the difficulty is increased, it can be said in reverse order.
7. Use a straw skillfully
Mom and Dad prepare straws and cups for the baby to practice sucking water from the cup, or you can do the opposite, blowing the water in the cup.
In the beginning, Mom and Dad can choose thinner and shorter straws to make it easier for babies to suck and blow. With the baby's mastery, Mom and Dad can switch to thicker, longer straws to increase the difficulty and intensity of the workout.
The water cup that the baby drinks water can be bought as a straw, and each drink of water is equivalent to a workout.
8. Confused mirror
Prepare a mirror and let the baby breathe in the mirror, the longer the time of the breath, the better, and the heavier the fog, the better. After there is water vapor on the mirror, mom and dad can draw some interesting patterns on the mirror with the baby, such as eyebrows, beard, small flowers, etc. At this time, look in the mirror with the baby and see what happens.
In the winter, or in cold and rainy weather, Mom and Dad can also play this game with their babies on the window glass of the home with their baby while it is safe.
If Mom and Dad have glasses, you can let your baby do glasses cleaning assistants. Breathe in your eyes and wipe them with a spectacle cloth. Be careful not to care if your baby wipes clean at first. Let the baby experience the trust of mom and dad, the joy of housework, and the purpose of exercising the mouth, is the most important.
9. Gargle
Babies love water and also like to play with water. While cultivating the habit of rinsing your baby's mouth after meals, you can also exercise your baby's oral control ability through the action of gargling.
Mom and Dad can first let the baby take a sip of water in the mouth, and use the action of the cheek to make the water in the mouth move and make a sound. Mom and Dad can first demonstrate to the baby and use sound to attract the baby to join in. At first, mom and dad have to be patient, this game is difficult for babies. Frequent practice is required.
Later, mom and dad can also prepare drinks such as coke, thin juice, and milk (which the baby can eat) to increase the fun of training.
10. Apply lipstick
Mom and Dad can choose children's edible lipstick, or use local ingredients, use colored jams at home as "lipstick", and choose food-grade napkins as a "coloring board". Apply "lipstick" to your baby's small mouth and print the baby's lip marks on food-grade paper.
This action can help your baby exercise strength and flexibility in the lip area. Because the strength of the lips is uneven, the lip print may be missing more at the beginning, and the goal is to print a complete lip print. Then it can add some fun, and mom and dad can work with the baby to cut out the printed lip prints and paste them into a painting.
The purpose of the training is to improve the baby's oral control ability and ultimately improve the ability to express language. Mom and Dad should also note that the most critical factor in the game is fun. In the process of interacting with the baby, parents can moderately adjust the difficulty and mode of play according to the baby's acceptance, and everything takes the baby as the starting point. Stimulate the interest of the baby, mobilize the enthusiasm of the baby, the training effect will often be more effective with half the effort.
