At what age do children speak the first word and build sentences?
Children can begin to speak already closer to 11 months. Before the first year of life, they are quite capable of mastering a set of 15 words, as well as different onomatopoeia. It is during this period that the child learns to pronounce the long-awaited word "mother". But the child's first word can be different. Very often for the first time they pronounce what they hear every day and repeatedly. In order to educate their child speech, parents need only comment on all the actions that they do during the day. At the same time, the baby should be encouraged to say new phrases after them. Such an occupation always enthralls young children, and therefore the learning process is very easy. For three years, the children begin to develop a coherent speech. It is at this time that the child should read children's literature with colorful illustrations and various epithets.
Exercises for the development of the speech of a young child
So that the baby learns to speak as early as possible,It is necessary to adhere to the following rules: You should often play with sounds, words and syllables in the presence of children, constantly training in the clarity of your pronunciation. When you see an object, the child should ask the question "What is this?". It is also very important to answer it clearly. When introducing the baby to new phrases or words, you should sit right in front of him so that he can clearly see the articulation. At the same time, syllables must be pronounced clearly and loudly.In the process of teaching a child, one should not replace difficult words with simpler ones. If the book depicts a dog, then this is how it should be said. Later, this will help the baby to name objects and objects correctly. When commenting something in front of the child, adults very often use only nouns. However, verbs also have a lot of meaning. A kid who knows the signs of action will quickly learn to build more complex sentences. When teaching his child to speak, it is very important not only to repeat words and phrases, but also to build sentences from them. Literacy is equally important. It is advisable to work on it from half a year already. The following guidelines can help you: 1. Articulatory gymnastics. You can even perform such exercises with a baby. He should regularly show clear movements of the lips, cheeks and tongue. There are even special games for older children (2-3 years old). For example, a toddler can be asked to play a steam train with a pipe and hummed lips, or to lick a plate, as a kitten does. Such activities should be included in the development of the child even before it is clear. 2. Listen carefully to your baby. Regular observation and listening of the child will help parents to identify incorrectly pronounced phrases or words in time, correct them and explain the meaning, pointing out the mistakes. It is also very important to apply clarifying questions. In this case, be sure to show emotions. 3. Frequent communication and reading aloud. By constantly listening to adults, the child learns new words very quickly. This is how his literate speech is formed. To do this, you can use various audiobooks with fairy tales, songs or rhymes. Competently and regularly performing all the exercises presented, your child will learn to speak the first words by 12 months, and build complex sentences by 3 years. Also useful tips:
