Ενδιαφέρουσα ερώτηση...

 

Παραθέτω το παρακάτω συνοπτικό άρθρο (στην Αγγλική), το οποίο δίνει ένα στίγμα για την ανάπτυξη (μεταξύ άλλων) των γλωσσικών δεξιοτήτων σε σχέση με ηλικιακό στάδιο και τον δικό μας ρόλο (ως γονείς) σε αυτήν την διαδικασία (πηγή: www.babycenter.com )

 

Ελπίζω να το βρείτε ενδιαφέρον (και βοηθητικό ως προς το ερώτημα που τέθηκε).

Developmental milestones: Understanding words, behavior, and concepts

 

Reviewed by the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board

 

 

<H3>Understanding words, behavior, and concepts</H3>Your newborn can't yet speak your language or fully understand what you're saying to him, but he's a fast learner. Research shows that babies start listening to their parents' voices while still in the womb. Once born, your baby begins tuning in to your words and sentence patterns to figure out what you're saying. He also uses his powers of observation to learn about some of the more complicated things — like love, trust, time, and cause and effect — that exist in his physical and emotional world.

<H3>When it develops</H3>Your baby starts to learn what others are saying and doing even before he's born. As a newborn, he doesn't know the precise meaning of the words you use, but he picks up on your emotions — such as happiness, sadness, love, concern, anxiety, and anger. By the time he's 4 months old, he'll recognize his own name, and by 8 to 12 months he'll understand simple requests such as "No" or "Don't touch." Around 24 months, he'll be able to talk to you in two- or three-word phrases. By 3, he'll have a vocabulary of several hundred words and a pretty good sense of some of the rituals and activities of everyday life, such as food shopping, telling time, and housecleaning.

 

<H3>How it develops</H3>Newborn to 1 month

Every waking moment, your baby is using his senses to take in new data about the world he finds himself in. He doesn't yet have the information that adults and older children use to interpret what they take in, but he's building that store of knowledge every day. Many experts say babies understand more than most parents think they do.

 

As a survival skill, your baby stays emotionally attuned to the people around him. He can understand how you feel and what you're thinking by the tone of your voice, the set of your mouth, the pace of your breathing, the feel of your skin, and the glint in your eye. Your baby will form his version of reality from the way you respond to him — deciding he's worthwhile because you come to him when he cries, stare lovingly into his eyes, and feed him when he's hungry.

 

As your baby's motor skills advance, his memory will get better, his attention span will lengthen, his ability to speak will improve, and his social skills will become more polished.

 

2 to 3 months

Your baby continues to soak up everything in his environment. His favorite activity is watching what goes on around him, and he understands now that you will soothe, feed, and play with him when he needs you. He'll delight you with his first genuine smile. Your baby enjoys the response he elicits with his grin and comes to understand that smiling is one way to let you know he's satisfied. By 3 months, he'll add some gurgling sounds to his smile, initiating a primitive form of conversation with you.

 

4 to 7 months

Your baby knows his name now and understands that you're speaking to him when you say it. He'll even respond by turning toward you. He's becoming more attuned to your tone of voice, too. When you sound happy, he'll react joyfully, and if you speak to him sharply he'll become distressed and may cry. He's also beginning to tell the difference between strangers and people he knows, and he may cry when you put him in the arms of someone he doesn't recognize.

 

8 to 12 months

Your baby's beginning to understand simple requests. Say "no" when he tries to touch an electrical outlet, for example, and he'll pause and look at your face — maybe even shake his head "no" in return.

 

He's also testing your responses to his behavior. He'll throw food on the floor just to see what you'll do, and then file your response in his memory bank. Later he'll test the waters again to see whether you react the same way.

 

12 to 18 months

By 18 months, your baby should be able to understand and may use at least 50 words. (In general he'll understand a word before he's able to say it himself.) And he'll be able to follow your directions, even if they involve two separate actions — for example, "Pick up those building blocks and put them in the toy chest."

 

19 to 23 months

Your child is beginning to understand that his wants may not necessarily converge with yours. He'll try to assert himself — folding his arms resolutely under his armpits when you want him to hold your hand, for example.

 

He's also starting to understand simple concepts such as space and dimension. This means he can probably put together a basic puzzle now, and he knows the difference between a triangle and a square and can place each shape in its appropriate spot in a shape-sorter.

 

He's also figuring out cause and effect: He knows that when he pulls the lever on his jack-in-the-box, for example, a clown pops out. This new skill will come in handy down the road when he's ready to toilet train.

 

Before your child can give up his diapers for good, he has to make the connection between the need to empty his bowels and using the potty. He'll also understand that when he pulls the handle to flush, his urine and bowel movements will disappear down the drain. The process starts all over again the next time he feels like going to the bathroom. When he sees how proud you are of his attempts to use the toilet, he'll be even more eager to try it again.

 

24 to 36 months

By now your child has a pretty good understanding of language. Development experts say most 2-year-olds understand at least 150 words and add 10 new ones to their vocabulary nearly every day. Since language acquisition has become practically second nature, your child can now turn his attention to more complicated concepts that involve emotions.

 

Between the ages of 2 and 3, your child will understand the basic building blocks of relationships: love and trust. He knows that you and the rest of the family care for him and are on his side. He's learned these important concepts by the way you've treated him in the first few years of his life. By showering him with affection, responding to his needs, and keeping him safe, you've helped him become a secure and optimistic child.

 

By watching you go about your day, your toddler begins to comprehend some of the more complicated aspects of everyday life, too, such as food shopping, telling time, and housecleaning. He's also gaining a deeper understanding of how he should treat other people. If you want him to grow up to become a kind and helpful person, make sure you treat him and others that way.

 

<H3>What comes next</H3>The number of words your child can understand and say will continue to grow rapidly. By the age of 6, most children have a vocabulary of nearly 13,000 words. In the next few years, he'll begin to comprehend ever more complex ideas and situations, such as basic math, telling right from wrong, and how to predict what will happen in the future.

<H3>Your role</H3>Talking and reading to your child will help him learn good communication skills. Studies have shown that children who are read to every day starting at around 6 months have more advanced communication abilities. But you might as well get in the habit of reading to your child before six months go by. Why not start in the first few weeks? Although your child won't understand the words or be able to follow a story, he'll grasp that reading is pleasurable, calming, and a nice way to spend time with you.

 

Playing with your child will help him learn more about the way the world works. Challenge him with age-appropriate toys and games to encourage his mental and physical development.

 

Be affectionate and show your child how much you love and care for him. That's the best way to teach him about important emotional concepts such as empathy.

<H3>When to be concerned</H3>If, by the age of 2, your child seems to have problems understanding the simplest directions and suggestions, talk to his doctor. You may also want to consult his doctor if, by age 3, he seems genuinely perplexed when you ask him do something simple — for example, if you've shown your toddler how to open a box countless times and he still doesn't seem to understand how to do it."
