A picture paints a thousand words. I am sure that upon looking at this picture, you will be smiling already. It is adorable?
You baby starts communicating with you from the time he is born. There is no languages involved, but you can still comprehend his basic needs. As his needs get more complex, the use of grunts, gestures and then language, helps it along. You may find that your child will grunt at a certain time in the early stages. They are interesting, each grunts stands for a different need. One may indicate hunger, while another type indicates tiredness.
But what if your child faces a delay in speech? A speech disorder? What are they? After the two blog articles I have shared, I decided that I should do more research. And when I did, I realized that there was so much more to cover. So I will be sharing it with all of you, weekly. (keeping my fingers crossed)
Until then, let me leave you to think about this...
"Learning adult speech is an extremely complex procedure involving the coordination of no fewer than 70 different muscles, and babies have to be patient while slowly gaining full control of these muscles." - Now that's tough!
