Speech, Language and Communication
The early years of a child's life, from birth to five years old, are an important period for the development of speech, language, and communication skills. This lays the foundation for a child's ability to express themselves, understand others, and engage with the world around them.
As children progress from babbling as infants to forming sentences as pre-schoolers, they pass through several key stages that are vital for their verbal and social abilities. Understanding these stages helps parents and caregivers support children as they go on this journey of speech, language, and communication development.
