Speech and Language Development: 2 to 3 Years
Language means using words and sentences to tell needs, wants or ideas. Speech means making the sounds that make words. Learning to talk and communicate is a very important skill that children develop. Parents are usually the first to notice when their child has a problem with speech or language. If you think that your child is having a speech/language problem, contact your child’s doctor to request a referral to CHKD Therapy Services for a speech and language evaluation.
