// Here are 3 parent friendly Tips (+2 BONUS) for helping children with expressive language delays (aka late talking toddlers)!
Tip #1: Pull your child's attention to your face by holding what they are looking at next to your mouth so they can see how the word is formed
-Pro Tip: Don't say "Say" ... instead: model what you think your child might want to say and use an elevated tone of voice to make it fun to imitate!
Tip #2: Use Elongated Vowels - provide choices (both preferred and non-preferred - very important to provide a non-preferred option so that your child does not just repeat the last option offered) and then use those exaggerated vowels to encourage your child to communicate what they want! Continue to practice adding on sounds onto their mastered vowels to "shape up" their speech articulation over time!
Bonus Tip: Use Speech Sound Hand Cues which helps your child visually differentiate between speech sounds! (easier than auditory discrimination for early language development)
Tip #3: Teach POWER WORDS: (functional vocabulary words) usually actions: HELP, STUCK, MINE, UP, NO, OPEN, etc! This will help your child express their wants in their time of need!
Bonus Tip: Set up Communication Opportunities at home! (ex: give them an empty cup or plate and see what they do!! then model: UH OH! JUICE! or WATER! or MORE DRINK PLEASE!)

This doc helped my son improve and get over autism with his herbs .His name is Dr Oyalo on channel. My sons speech and behavior/social skill has improved perfectly using his herbs
This is so super helpful! Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
I stumbled upon your page trying to help my niece with expressive language. Your channel is very helpful. Congrats on your little one 🌈. I’m currently going through my second round of IVF 🙏💗
🫶🏽🙏 lots of love for you such a long, hard process. Took us 2 years, 3 stim rounds & we only had the one embryo. It’s all worth it in the end though. Hang in there
Thank you as I have been telling my son "Say" alot recently.
You are amazing.
Congrats, 3 times of IVF that's a lot of stress, can't imagine... Glad you are back, I thought you decided to quit utube
Yes, lots of stress! He was our only embryo after it all so it was a tough time but I’m so blessed & happy he made it ❤
Congratulations! I’m a new subscriber here and I’m loving your content. Do you have any tips or how to help my toddler say a specific word or sound instead of signing it. For example you said to give an empty cup of water, but my child would just sign water and continue to do so until I filled it up. Our SLP says to just continue to say water, but she just signs it.

Does your little one say any words currently or would this be the first one?
I'm experiencing pain at the tip of my tongue while speaking. Could you please suggest some exercises to help correct this issue?
Hello speech therapist
I really enjoy you learning techniques as they are so helpful but I am having problems with my child who is 4 undiagnosed with autism is saying a few words but when you ask her to do something and if she doesn't want to do it she either screams or runs to another room please help Nisha
Try to make things into a game, “let’s see who can pick up the most legos” or “I’ll race you to the garbage can to throw this away” something like that - you can also watch my video on “how to help a child learn following directions”

These are great tips. My child doesnt seem to understand much yet. But i have heard her repeat words after the tv or much later in the day, when she thinks shes alone. (Ex. Why, buh bye, open) Any idea why? Thx
Yes, it seems like she MAY be a Gestalt Language Processor. Meaningfulspeech.com has excellent resources if so
