- Mama
- Children are born with initial ways of communicating needs such as needing food or discomfort. When they are hungry, they make a noise or movement to give indication to the caretaker. They are born with this ability as a means of survival.
- Purposeful Communication
- The second step to being able to develop language is by watching those around you. Children start to observe that people respond to their cries and movements and start to pay attention how others communicate their wants and needs. They observe the sounds and movements others use to communicate. Make them a part of as much as you can so they can learn from everyone.
- Preschool
- She sad. Crying.
- Now that your child is listening to everything around them, they start to mimic words and movements that correlate with positive response. Those responses can be a bottle when hungry or the excitement and praise when saying mama.
- Early School Years
- May I please watch my show?
- Throughout their toddler years, children continuously adding not just to their word count but to their understand of grammar. Around age two they can communicate in easy sentences that correlate with what they have seen and been encouraged to use. Watch your language, they are picking up everything at this stage! Watch your verbs!
- Help Pee Pee
- Now your little tape recorder has started to communicate their comprehension of grammar and sentence structure. They are still absorbing everything being communicated around them and trying to figure out how to not just mimic but use it for their representation of the words. They are using those sentences correctly while knowing it is correct.
- Truck is Mine!
- By the time they are in kindergarten they should be using mostly grammatically correct sentences and really start to represent their individual way of communicating. That's right, you can now have a conversation with your child so they can tell you how it is in their own words. Good or bad.
