A. proper language / speech development will start between 18 months of age to 3 years of age. there is no need to worry before that just concentrate on the diet and regular interaction with the child. also speech and language develops properly with more people available to interact with the child avoid usage of tv mobile and laptop because they are the most common reasons for delayed speech and language development. the most important thing is that before speech, understanding of the commands given by the parents should be present. by 18 mofnths if the child is nott following basic commands then only you have to meet the doctor for speech and development assessment. requirement of speech therapy will also be discussed by your doctor.

A. Hello dear parent! Limit the screen time. Spend more time with your child as a family. Interact with your child and encourage your child to express and respond. Consult your child’s doctor for advice. Serve healthy foods in cute Babyhug stainless steel bowls and plates to encourage healthy eating.
