The child is three years old and can't speak clearly

Children start learning to speak from birth, babbling and imitating adults' speech. You should know that children have a strong ability to imitate. Therefore, the growth and educational environment is crucial for children, and parents are the role models for children. However, if the child is three years old and still does not speak clearly, then parents should pay attention. If a three-year-old child speaks unclearly, you can guide the child according to the following methods.

1. Change the previous parenting style: Children are also thinking, emotional and educated people. Parents should treat them like sensible older children, talk and communicate with them every day, and choose short rhyming nursery rhymes or stories to read to them. At the same time, get to know the things around you and get in touch with the people around you.

2. Learn to give motherly love to your children: pass on motherly love to your children through your own language, expressions, and actions, so that children can have positive emotions and feel warm and safe around them. Only then will children take the initiative to adapt to and explore the external environment to develop their own intelligence. The critical period for oral language development is within 3 years old. Once missed, it will be difficult to regain and improve the language.

3. In language training, you must have enough patience, confidence and perseverance: believe that your child will be able to acquire good language skills, be careful to avoid impatience, and don’t indulge or neglect your child, causing the child to lose the best educational period and unable to form a certain learning habit. This is a very regrettable thing for the child’s future.

4. Give full play to the role of father in education and training: maternal love and paternal love are both indispensable. The lack of any aspect will affect the formation of a child's healthy personality in the future. Therefore, fathers are required to hold their children more often, find ways to get their children to speak, and encourage their children's small progress, so as to strengthen their children's enthusiasm and interest in learning languages.

First of all, 3 years old is a watershed for children. If your child still cannot speak at the age of 3, you should pay attention to it. The parents' own conditions, including the level of education, experience, growth environment, and the degree of attention they pay to the child, will affect the child. Some parents do not pay enough attention and think that the child just speaks a little late. Because of the negligence of their parents, the child's healthy development and growth are affected.

The second step is that if you find that your child is 3 years old and still cannot speak, it is best to seek medical treatment, observe regularly, etc. to find out whether the child’s condition is caused by developmental problems, intellectual disability, etc. If the child's behavior is still abnormal, you should take him to a regular hospital for examination and take appropriate measures based on the results of the hospital examination.

The third step is that if the late speaking is not caused by abnormal development, parents should not be anxious first. There are many reasons why a 3-year-old cannot speak, such as: problems with grandparents’ education, parent-child education, parents’ failure to guide the child, genetic factors (some parents spoke late when they were young), the child’s introverted personality, parents not giving the child the opportunity to speak, and parents can understand the child’s behavior through body language, etc.

The fourth step is to analyze your own reasons while analyzing the child, and whether your own reasons have affected the child. If it is your own reasons, you must correct them in time. Don't let yourself delay your child's development.

In the fifth step, you can make improvements in the following ways: 1. Communicate more with your children and encourage them to talk more. Sometimes you can take advantage of opportunities to play interesting role-playing games and try to provide your children with more opportunities and occasions to speak. 2. Take your children out often, interact with more people, guide them more, don't lock them up at home, and let them communicate with more people. 3. Parents should observe more and pay attention to their children's preferences and interests. Try to spend more time to cater to their preferences and guide them to slowly learn to speak simple language. 4. At the same time, as a parent, you must first be patient. Learning to speak is a gradual process for children. Children speak early and slowly, so don't be anxious. 5. Don’t use emotional language or behavior towards your child just because you are anxious. Although children cannot speak from an early age, your every move affects them. Try to create a comfortable, relaxed and gentle environment for your children.

Step six. At this time, children still mainly rely on the guidance of their parents. I believe that through hard work, children will grow up healthily. I myself am such an example. When my son was 30 months old, he could only say two or three simple phrases, such as: Dad. Mother. Grandpa, Dandan, Jiajia, etc., and they are also very naughty. Because they were taken care of by their grandparents before 30 months old, the grandparents' education has a great impact on the children. Because of excessive pampering and improper education, they went to the hospital for a check-up and there was no big problem, just that their intelligence was a little slow in development and their language was delayed. The doctor suggested that parents should guide the children slowly and go for a check-up again in two months. Later, I also read a lot of information and learned a lot of methods to educate children. My child is now 3 years old and has made rapid progress in a very short time. So I think everything depends on human efforts. As long as everyone works hard, there will be gains.
