Question

My child is 2 and a half years old and I’ve noticed they have a language delay. What is language delay and what can be done about it?

Answer

This situation is considered a language development delay. Children develop at different rates, and some children’s language development may lag behind their peers. If the situation is severe, it is recommended to consult a neurology department for examination. Typically, you can also provide more language training for the child, such as giving them sufficient sensory stimulation in their usual environment. Encourage and guide them to use various senses to understand the things around them, such as using small objects, sounds, toy cars, etc., first to get them to pay attention to watching, and then train their ability to focus on activities.
