// HOW TO BUILD COMMUNICATION SKILLS AT HOME:
BEFORE a child will imitate words, they MUST be reactive to environmental stimuli, have an increased attention span, be able to interact reciprocally / share joint attention, communicate symbolically using gestures and finally, imitate words. Check out the full list below by Laura Mize.
11 Prelinguistic Skills:

1) Begin at the top of the list and go through each skill, checking them off one by one that your child has mastered them. IF you notice there is a skill missing, please check out our Language Development Playlist and find a video with tips and tricks to improve that particular skill!
🔸LANGUAGE PLAYLIST: • Early Language Develop...
2) Show, Tell and Model gestures when pairing them with SIMPLE words / commands!
3) Make it FUN! Ensure you face is providing higher level affect!
4) Focus on FUNCTIONAL vocabulary! "Help, Stuck, Go, Stop, Eat, Drink, Up, Down.. etc"
and ensure the interaction is MEANINGFUL for your child!
5) Keep your child engaged by adding Proprioceptive Vestibular inputs or sensory integration! Check out our post for EASY Sensory Ideas At Home!: / cw6_gkmmwnq
6) Draw attention to your mouth / face with speech sound hand cues:

7) Improve gestures and imitation skills through SOCIAL GAMES and ACTIVITES: Row your boat with your child in the laundry basket; airplane baby; ring around the rosey, tickle fights; scavenger hunts; happy and you know it clap your hand; wheels on the bus; patty cake; etc

Love and appreciate the information you share! I use various techniques that really become one experience in a natural environment with gross and fine motor activities-- so many opportunities for using gestures and continuous engagement-- taking a trip back to go forward. most of my sessions with my language learners are gross motor and social interactive with encouragement to request sensory breaks including quiet. Many times I will ask the question by checking in or I will notice them becoming dis-regulated, label or narrate what I observe "it looks like you are wanting sounds..." and prompt them with a modeled prompt accordingly for imitation. Gross motor activities for an appropriate learner will provide many opportunities for narrating and labeling as well as teaching natural expressions, running preference assessments, and to checking in.
Thank you for putting all of this information out there. My little guy is just over 2 and is a late talker. I have been really learning a lot from you and really wish I would have known so much of this when my little guy was 8-10 months. I feel like we are a bit behind but I also feel like it’s not the end of the world because there are so many kids out there that have had and do have these challenges that are able to succeed.
Thank you for your videos and time.
Try not to worry! You never know what you don’t know until you know! Also regardless of age all kids will run through the same sequence so start at the bottom and build confidence and motivation and your child for accomplishing the easier task and then move on to the more difficult ones! You can do it! I believe in you! 💛
Was waiting for you eagerly! ❤

Hi, an you please make video on pragmatic.how to teach joining and continuing conversation
Thank you very much for all your videos
I love them all
Can you please make a video about how to teach new words /and improve speech while playing with playdoug and kinetic sand.
My son plays with it all day long and everyday .
Thank you
Absolutely and that’s a great sensory play routine!! You could get some speech mini objects from speechtreeco.com I did a video on her mini object sets that is called the best choice for speech therapy and I love to put them in things like kinetic sand and work on vocabulary and speech sounds!!
Great video, such helpful content! Could you please share the reference or study to the 2015 research you mentioned? Thanks!!
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4165687/ here is one! But this isn’t the one that I referenced! I will try to find that exact one!
www.interveningearly.org/downloads/16x16-handout.pdf this may be it!
Hi just found your vids. My son is a late talker and doesn't talk much. He mostly mumble words and have really bad tantrums. He has been kicked out of daycare and I am hoping these stragies work..
Love your videos, do you offer 1on1 counseling?
Hi yes I actually do now! You can book online at Bloomandshinegroup.com
Any tips for a child that isn’t answering questions? Like what is your favorite color? Are you hungry? Yes or no questions have been the biggest struggle. Thank you!
Hi thanks for ur videos they r awesome and I love ur energy and passion towards ur work!!
I have a question, my child who turning 3 soon has lots of words he labels a lots of things he repeats 2-3 word sentences with us but when it comes to using them himself in his day to day routine he does not do it I wonder y,
My speech therapist was saying may b he has pragmatic delay if u have any idea about this or you have across similar situation in any of ur clients please do help me understand what is it and how do I help him and get him talking dull sentences!
Hey there! Do you notice that he enjoys rhythmic books / rhyming books / shows / songs, etc? Does he repeat what he hears on shows, tv, from other people often?
@@TheSpeechScoop yes he does likes rhymes, songs and he repeats what he hears in the videos and also repeats what we ask him to say..but he does not say things functionally like when he is actually suppose to use them.
I just found your videos thank you so much I have a boy he is 12 years old he is diagnosed with phelan mcdermaid syndrome he is making sounds is there any hope to speak
Absolutely! Keep working on the vowels and then building consonants overtime starting with the first developmentally appropriate consonants /m, p, b/
Check out my apraxia videos for speech sound hand cues to learn how to cue the sounds!
Hi 👋 I have a question my 2.5 little one has lots of single words and phrases but has hasn’t got a lot of gestures , can’t turn take etc would you suggest we go back to work on these prelinguistic skills?
Hmmm no, not necessarily. If he waves “bye/hi,” blows kisses, gives high fixes, and points, I would not recommend going back. If he does not, I would recommend going back because I might think his expressive language is higher than receptive & we don’t want to increase that gap because it’s harder to go backward to improve! Let me know if you have other questions!
Yes she does wave , does gestures to over 50 songs , points etc so I’ll just keep working on building words and use more gestures during our play time
I have a question its a my son turning 2years old next month non verbal voice but he can understand what can i can say and he is limit the eye contact thank you godbless
So that sounds like an expressive language delay
hi i’m 14 and my surname is ormerod and people always mistake me for saying ‘wormerod’ or something with a ‘w’ and i get that with loads of other words with ‘r’ in them ive tried some of the exercises from one of your videos a year ago for helping with saying the letter ‘r’ and i’ve had no luck with them so far was just wondering if you had anything i could try
Absolutely! I have three different R sound videos on my channel you can check out!
Hi my baby is 19 months.sign of autism and don’t speak any word.only make some sound ,not for communication.he makes sounds alone.I try some therapy from CZcams.he looks on my eye and mouth.he found me funny and he laughs and happy,but don’t try to copy.how can I teach him to speak?please help me from which video I can start with my boy..thank you
I would start working on prelinguistic skills! You can look up “11 prelinguistic skills chart” and there is a great one from teach me to talk. Laura mise also has some fantastic prelinguistic ideas
And then work on imitating actions, and teaching gestures prior to teaching words and talking!
I also have a video on gestalt language processors which 85% of children diagnosed with autism process information and that way son I do have a video on “jargon and echolalia: gestalt language processors” and it will definitely help and understanding how to work with your little one at home!!
Hey how is your kid now my son he is like your kid he makes some sound but he is not talking yet he will be 3 years after 2 months
