Activities to Boost Language Development: 18-24 Months
Your toddler is at a stage where she is constantly learning language from you. Jamie Loehr M.D. and Jen Meyers, authors of "Raising Your Child" suggest these activities in order to encourage healthy language development.

Read Together
Read to your child every day, several times a day. Discuss the illustrations when you're looking at books together. Ask your child to tell you what she sees. Ask her to point out specific items on the page. Read alphabet books to lay the ground-work for learning the ABCs.

My son is 19 months and says daddy, mommy, and no. But he talks gibberish and is a chatter box. My daughter is now 5 but at that age she knew her ABCs and 123s. And im teaching and reading makinhg it fun and games all the same as I did her, but there has been no changes. What else could I do?

10/19/2010 12:40:54 PM Report Abuseit really works to read to your child My son is only 19 months and knows his ABC's and not just the song or by the order you say them. I can ask Him what letter his it is and he knows the letter, any Letter in any order. I am very proud of him he knows something some 3year olds dont even know yet!
