Topic: Grandson is 26 months with limited vocabulary Posted By: Sis Date: 10 Oct 2001 3:55 PM
My daughter recently put my grandson in daycare after being with me for
2 years. His vocabulary is limited to a few words and he doesn't
interact with the other children. He would rather play alone. He didn't
even start to speak until he started daycare and now he counts from 1
to 10 and says alot of different words, but no sentences. They are
concerned about his "independence" for lack of a better word. He will
have circle time, where they sing songs and do different things, but if
he doesn't want to do whatever they are doing, he will go off and play
alone. We never had his hearing tested because he can hear everything
we say to him. Its his lack of speech that they seem to be concerned
about. What can i do to help him talk?
