HOW WE SUPPORT TODDLER ORAL LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT AT HOME | My 10 tips for raising a chatty toddler

Описание: We are a bilingual family as my son, Ben, is growing up with both English and German. So, we put a huge focus on supporting our toddler's oral language development at home and have done since he was born. I am a foreign language teacher so I am genuinely so interested in how babies and toddlers acquire language and in this video, I share my 10 tips for supporting a child's language skills, whether they are monolingual or are learning more than one language. I am not a speech and language therapist but these strategies have really worked for us as a family and we now have a pretty verbal, chatty 21 month old. All children absolutely develop at their own pace but I hope these tips and strategies help you to you support your little one's language development too!

You'll find me talking about each tip at the times below.
