Speaking is one of the basic abilities that babies must learn. How can we help Baobaoshun learn to speak smoothly? Pay attention to the following aspects.
Speak one minute slower
Because Ma Ma accompanies the little one every day, it is easy to understand what the baby wants to do through a small movement. For example, when Ma Ma sees the baby pointing at a water bottle, she immediately understands that the baby wants to drink water, so she hands the water bottle to him immediately. In fact, a quick response like this will deprive the baby of the opportunity to express themselves. The correct approach for Ma Ma should be that when the baby points at the water bottle, the mother can wait for the baby to say what he wants to do, even if it's just one word, it's not a small improvement.
Use fewer reduplication words when talking to babies
Don't say incomplete things to your baby, such as saying 'meal is rice'. Long term use of such language to talk to babies can affect their ability to speak complete sentences and also reduce their vocabulary.
Don't imitate the baby's mistakes
Babies who have just learned to speak may not have very accurate pronunciation, such as saying "fire" as "fou" and "eat" as "qi". Parents may find it fun and often learn their baby's incorrect pronunciation, but in fact, this is not right. Parents should speak to their babies in the correct language, and with the guidance of correct pronunciation, the little one's pronunciation will be correct.
Language needs to be unified
In some families, parents, grandparents, and caregivers each have their own dialects, and the language environment is complex with multiple dialects coexisting. This can cause confusion for babies who are in the stage of imitating adult language, resulting in delayed speech. Therefore, during the critical period of language learning from half a year old to two years old, family members should focus on teaching him a language to avoid a language environment that is too chaotic.
