When the little miracle that you were looking forward to is born, the first and most interesting moments of his life begin: the first smile, the first tooth, the first step, the first word. All this happens gradually, each phenomenon has its own time.
Instructions
Step 1
Before speaking, the child learns to hear and understand the speech of others. Being in the womb, he already feels tender speech, gentle stroking. In the first months of life, he reacts more to the voice of his mother and tries to find her by turning his head, while making various sounds. By the nature of these sounds, you can understand the mood of the baby that hurts. After 3-4 months, the child, when people dear to him appear, begin to babble cheerfully. He makes sounds similar to speech, but they merge together. At the same time, you need to talk to the child, pronouncing the words correctly. It is advisable to consolidate these words with some kind of action or indication of the objects to which they relate.
Step 2
Scientists identify passive and active vocabulary in a child. Words that a child can pronounce aloud are classified as active, and those that understand are classified as passive. Vocabulary begins to form by 8-9 months. By the age of 1, a child has a gap between active and passive vocabularies. He can already pronounce 5-8 words, but he must understand more than a hundred. And the first word that a baby can say doesn't have to be "mom."
Step 3
The first words of a child are associated with people or objects that surround him. He can simplify their pronunciation by replacing them with sounds that are easy to pronounce: "yum-yum", "buy-by". Teachers also advise to call objects in two words: the full name and the sounds that characterize it (cow - "mu", crow - "kar"). Poems and tongue twisters are very helpful in the development of children's speech.
Step 4
By the age of 1, 5 years, the child begins to make up the simplest phrases. By the age of 3-4, he is able to pronounce full sentences. From 1, 8 and 2, 5 years old, you can already fully communicate with a child, as with an adult. If this does not happen, you need to seek the help of a psychologist and speech therapist. The specialist first of all checks the baby's passive vocabulary. Speaking by the year of life is not an obligatory factor, but the child must understand what exactly he is being told. It is rather difficult to check whether the child understands your speech, so a specialist should do it.
Step 5
The development of children is individually and directly related to the attitude of adults towards him. Do not be lazy to talk to your child, read books to him. Learn your own children's poems and songs. Communication with your baby should be lively and interesting. Learn to understand your baby.
