👉 Make it a daily routine to read to your child. opt for books that feature large pictures and minimal text.
👉 Encourage your child to broaden their vocabulary. If Avani asks for more juice, provide the correct word order in your response, but avoid pressuring her to mimic you. For example, if she says, "more juice," you can say, "Avani wants more juice"
👉 Stimulate your child's ability to recognize sounds, such as the vacuum cleaner, running tap water, barking dogs, thunder, airplanes, and cars.
👉 Involve your child in straightforward tasks like tidying up toys or placing clothes in the laundry basket. Encourage your child to name the items you're using.
👉 Expand on your child's statements by providing additional information. For example, you can say, "Yes, that's a car, a big, red car.
👉 Offer your toddler straightforward and clear choices, such as "Would you like to have milk or juice?" or "Do you want to put on green or blue socks?
👉 Learn how to manage a temper tantrum: Avoid raising your voice or resorting to physical discipline. Stay composed, speak in a soothing manner, and gently place your hand on the child's arm if appropriate.
👉 Don't expect toddlers to readily share or take turns. At this stage, their primary focus is on developing their physical coordination and language skills. Learning to share will come as they grow.
