Linguistic development
• At this age your child can
say some words or make some
sounds, and he may be able to use some words correctly, but
most of his words are still repetition without understanding.
• He can imitate the pronunciation and tone of some words just
as he imitates actions. He can respond
to simple requests such as,
“Please give me the ball” or “Give me a spoon.” Help him to learn
by giving him some simple instructions that are easy to follow.
Social-‐emotional development
• This is a month of discovery…
He will discover cupboards,
drawers, bags, his toy box and kitchen tools.
• Your child likes to look at books and turn the pages, and he will
have a favorite that he likes to go back to all the time.
• He imitates the movements of older children.
• At this age the child distinguishes
between things that upset
you and things that make you happy, and he distinguishes
between obedience and disobedience. If you tell him something
and he does not do it, he is doing that deliberately.
• This is an age of setting limits. The
child has to know his limits,
but you should not be harsh. For example, do not let him take
that second cupcake. You have to set limits for him now. If he
pulls the cat’s tail, for example, remove
his hand and look into his
eyes and say, “Don’t do that, because it hurts the cat.” Then
teach him to pet the cat gently. Remember that his desire to
explore is far stronger than his desire to listen to your warnings.
