Between the ages of two and four your child’s vocabulary will increase from a few hundred words to a few thousand. At the same time, your child will transition from using short two word phrases to more complex sentences & questions. Language development varies widely from child to child and is dependent on the amount and quality of speech and language your child is exposed to. Reading, conversation, and more structured language learning can all help boost speech.
* Experts estimate that speech and language delays affect as many as 5% to 10% of preschool aged children.

Hi. I just wanted to say thank you for the videos. My daughter started watching them at six months and by the time she was 9 months could say 10 words. By the time she was 1 she could say over 50 words and by the time she was 18 months was saying thousands (anything you asked her.) Not only that she was saying big words like hippopotamus and university. Plus she was also speaking in sentences and singing whole songs by then (like Amazing Grace.) She just turned 3 last month and is so verbal I find it hard to believe she is only 3. As do her preschool teachers. Everyone is amazed at how much she can comprehend as well. I really do attribute this to your videos. I think they are invaluable and I just started my 5 month old son on them. I'll let you know his progress. Thanks again.

My 2 1/2 year old grandson was not talking in English-just gibbering his own language. The minute his mother started playing tape 1, he would sit, enthralled, and after a week, he started saying the words. Now he has mastered tape 2. He still continues to jabber on, but he stops when he sees a recognizable object and says the word for it. We are completely grateful for the simplistic, but effective way you have presented the basic vocabulary for a child. Thank you so much."
