Teach your child to practice speaking: From birth to 3 years old

Your baby's speaking skills started in a very primitive way, from ee language, then gradually becoming each sentence, each paragraph. As someone who is always with your child in every step of development, parents play an important role in the development of their child's speech, especially in the initial stage.

From birth to 3 months

A baby is born to listen. In the first months of life , your baby will learn to get used to the noises of the surrounding environment such as the barking of dogs, the sounds of cars, the sound of TV, the voices of parents ... The first sounds that babies make are cry. Not long after that, at about 3 months of age, babies begin to make more diverse sounds, usually vowels such as a, e, and hum. Right from the 4th week, the baby knows to distinguish different sounds like "ha", "na". By 2 months, your baby knows how to distinguish the parents' lip movements when you speak to them with different sounds.

 

It will take a while for you to teach your baby how to pronounce, but at this stage, you will need to talk a lot with your baby . Look your baby in the eye and speak clearly, slowly and let him see how you move your lips.

 

4 to 6 months

Babies begin to babble when they begin to hear first consonants, such as "g" or "k", "m", "p" ... They can pay attention to familiar sounds like "ba", "mom". If you often tell your baby familiar words like "hello", "whoop", your baby will be able to recognize it since 4 and a half months. Those are the first clues for me to discover how to say a sentence in the near future. By 6 months, the baby will also recognize his name.

To help your child practice during this stage, you can say each word individually, over and over. Your baby will find ways to imitate those sounds. Don't choose words that are too difficult but practice with vowels and consonants. When you call out the baby's name, you should pay attention to see if the baby has come back.

7 to 12 months

Your baby's first sounds are already similar to the meaning words. You will hear your baby repeat certain words like "ba ba", "daddy", "uu" ... all day long without being bored. At 9 months, babies can use gestures to express their wishes, hold out their hands to point to the things they want to get. By month 10, babies have better control over their pronunciation. The first word that your child can speak will appear around December. Those first words are usually "grandma", "daddy", "mother" or words for familiar things like "chicken", "milk"…

She has been able to understand some phrases and is very attentive to intonation. If you answer in a hard voice and louder than usual, your baby will understand that it means "no" or "stop".

With the rapid development of pronunciation and comprehension during this stage, you can repeat two-syllable words over and over, say a sentence in high and low tones, and sing to your baby to help them grasp firmer in tone.

13 to 18 months

As soon as they say the first word, they will begin to expand their vocabulary database. This will start off quite slowly, just a few words per month. Children often prefer nouns, followed by verbs and adjectives. Each word they say now can correspond to one sentence. For example, when you say "cake", it means "mother feeding me cake". One word that babies are extremely fond of right now is "no" (however, the baby may not pronounce it clearly and say "hips"), so don't assume you're stubborn. Children are learning how to express their point of view, or can answer "no" just because they like this word.

Babies can understand more words than they say. Moreover, at this time, the baby can distinguish the sentence order. For example, a baby knows that "Daddy dropped the glass" is different from "Daddy dropped the glass". Baby also knows how to follow simple instructions. Language games will be more fun because you can practice with your child short phrases and sentences.

19 to 24 months

This is a "boom" period. After a long time, the baby has only been able to move every little bit of his vocabulary. Now I will be so excited that you can remember 9 new words every day. This explosion will make mom "disturbed" all the time with the question "what is it". At this age, your baby will also make lovely mistakes in using words. For babies, all things that are circular are balls, rectangular boxes are "bricks". Babies also begin to be more interested in verbs.

At this age, children understand that you are the key to their language. Therefore, every word you say will be heard and repeated by your baby. Therefore, you should find ways so that your children can learn to talk politely and easily cause sympathy. Absolutely avoid anger, quarrels or swearing in front of children because they will easily learn these words.

25 to 36 months

At the age of 3, your baby begins to put together everything he has learned. Children will ask questions with words like what, where, how ... and understand that "no" can mean "don't do", "stop now", "don't have" ... Verbs like "know", "Thinking" has become familiar to me. Children can control their lips and tongue fluently and start making difficult sounds like "ph", "th", "r", "tr". Even by the end of the 3rd year, she is able to sing a whole short song or tell a short story.

At this time, you can read poetry and sing songs with your child so that they can practice speaking sentences. If your child has wrong grammar, you can repeat the correct sentence, emphasize the wrong word so that she can remember the correct word use. For example, when your child says "I want to eat milk", you can reply "I want to drink milk, wait a minute".

Keep in mind that babies can understand more than they say. So, you just talk a lot with your baby, he will develop his or her speaking ability very quickly.
