Dear Kayla my son is 31 months, he knows a lot of words and phrases. I have seen your videos with big interest. He knows numbers to 20 and letters, he can relate the letters to the words like" t for train,truck etc ...lately he is calling mummy and Mason (his name). He doesn't play with friends in the nursery to much but he plays with friends he knows. Do you have any advice ,do u think he is ok growing? The early intervention said he should be 3 years to have a valuation 😞

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hi! They won't offer an evaluation until 3 years? I have tons of free videos on my youtube to help with a few small things but if you are looking for a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do then look into my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/

Thanks a lot. My girl loves to play with balloons.

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

thanks for your tips. I have 31month old boy who has some language delay and we live in Korea but we usually talk to him in English. today we had meeting baby psychist for his language development test. I wanted to know whether he has delay or disorder. i will try your tips and will give you some updates.

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hey, I started talking when I was almost 3yo.. Grew up speaking german only, and I developed perfectly fine! I know the doctors don't agree, but: dont worry :)

I'm actually a Developmental Therapist in IL! I wanted to ask what is the brand of your balloon pump from your balloon activity video! I love all your videos and have really incorporated a lot of your activities into my therapy in home sessions!

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

AWESOME! I got it at CVS but I've seen it in target and almost everywhere. Check amazon

[@MuhiraMaqbool]

I want to learn English to speak to my six-year-old child

[@Teresa250]

Hi there. Your videos are very helpful. Question: can you give any advice for transitioning from " hand over hand"? My twins are successfully saying "help" and properly holding their spoons while eating. However they are not attempting to feed themselves on their own. How can I get them to try using the spoon on their own? Without hand over hand? Thank you.

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hi there! I don't specialize in this, it sounds more like an occupational therapy question, but it might help if they see you using a spoon and you are encouraging them to try "like mommy!" Thanks for watching my videos!

[@deedee9312]

perfect video!

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Thank you!

[@MONETTEABERION]

How old is the baby?

Hi, my son is 2 yrs and 8 months and has ASD. He says words once in a while. How can I help him to develop speech and communicate effectively.

[@dunyahas8059]

Hi did your son get better because I am in a same level with my son now and if he did what did you do to help him thank you

[@Neekarachi]

My kid doesn't concentrate and easily loses focus on activities I try with him. He will be 2 in 3 months and he really does day anything but will guide me to what he wants. He listens to some commands I say but for the most part I'm worried

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hi! Thanks for your comment. Reach out to your doctor and ask for a referral for a speech and language evaluation. Better to get started as soon as possible.

[@tyieshelaadams6956]

My daughter will be two this week and does the same thing. I have went to doctor to refer her to baby net.

[@SvinkaVika]

Did you get the evaluation?

[@Neekarachi]

Holy crap! I posted this comments 4 years ago! Wow! Let me give you guys a update! My son is 6 years old now and yes he is diagnosed autism. BUT he has came soooo far! We put him in speech & occupational therapy along with early schooling for children with disabilities & he has learned sooo much! He can verbally name his dinosaurs, fruits, vegetables, planets and all kinds of animals. He can tell me his needs & wants. & last year started using the potty. This journey has been a roller coaster and we do have our ups & downs. Like my baby can’t tell us full sentences… like if I say “how was school?” He can’t verbalize that but I know one day he will get there.

[@maryjaneconsigocomon3482]

Hi, ,my 2 year old son is still not speaking even saying mama or dada,flapping his hands, Some say autism, 🥺 Can you please a video so I can teach him? Thank you so much,

[@stephaniesilva5912]

Is it normal for a 20 month old to only say hi, bye, mom, dad, shut, buhbye, hazel, up, go and some more? Should she be making sentences or? I’ve been trying to teach her but she kinda ignores me

Hi! I'm in my first year of grad school now and I find it difficult to take data when doing play therapy with toddlers. Do you have any tips?

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hi! Yes it can be tough. I try to focus on one goal per activity and jot a quick note as I switch activities. Good luck in grad school. What school? Please share these with your program!

[@Trickytrickify]

What should I do if we are speaking two different language, I only want to speak my native language, but when he is with his dad he can speak English only. But I'm worried that it's actually will confused him.

Hi. My son is autistic. He started speaking many words meaningfully like Cow, Dog, etc. but when I ask him what's this he never answers. This is happening from 3 the last 3-4 months. Can you please tell us what should we do? We are from India and we already don't listen to his gesture requests.

Some kids just do not talk. Can you show a kid that does not talk? Thank you.

[@rehannadsamara7342]

How old is the kiddo?

[@C25correa]

My son would be 2 in 2 months and only says 2 or 3 words and it’s only every once in a while that he would use these words. I already shared my concerns with his pediatrician at his 18 month check up and recently and she keeps telling he will be fine and I shouldn’t worry until he is 3. But I feel that he should get the help he needs now rather than later right?

[@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy]

Hi! Yes your instinct is correct. Most 24 month olds have 200- 300 words that they use are are using phrases. I have a video here on it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGW2qYmlj6aheMU

This child repeats after you. What if the child just doesn’t want to repeat the words. I feel your videos are only with cooperative kids

That can be tough. You'll need a professional to help you.
