OUT Q=into short sentences


There are ways you can help your child develop their language skills. Specialists suggest talking to your child in parentese or what is called "Baby Talk."
This is done by using a higher pitch, stretching out the words and repeating them more often.

But whether or not you should use parentese also depends on the age of the child.
At around the age of four or five parents should talk the child like they were an adult.
And as the child starts to use more complex sentences so should the parent.
If you suspect your child is having problems it's best to seek help early.
