Late Talker Consultation
Every child develops at their own pace, but there are certain key language milestones to keep an eye on. For example:
At 18 months, your child should
- Be producing a few single words, with communicative intent
- Use a variety of gestures to communicate/get their message across
Your 2 year old child should
- Have approximately 50 vocabulary words that they use consistently
- Be able to follow simple commands
- Start pairing two words together to form short phrases such as "mommy gone", "more cookie", or "byebye dada!".
Your 3 years old child should
- Talk in sentences of five words or more
- Understand spatial concepts such as in, under and on
- Understand questions starting with who, what, when, where and why
- Use a variety of action words
- Tell simple stories
