Summary: Often parents are concerned because their 18-24 month old child isn’t talking. In this episode, we share information about language development at 18 and 24 months. We also discuss points to help you understand your child’s communication development. It is important to look at what the child understands receptively. Do you think your child understands simple everyday words? How can you tell? Another important question is how is your child communicating? Communication is more than using words, it encompasses using gestures, facial expressions, and sounds. We offer specific ideas to work into your daily routines and your child’s play to help support their language development.
