A. the same thing happened to my sister's son. he is now 2.5 yr. the problem arised here is bcoz of mobile. the use of mobile TV etc should be restricted. actually what happens the electronic gadgets attracts child by colourful videos and images. but after all it is like one-way communication. there should be interaction of words , repetition of words. now my sister takes special care she continuously call his name until he reacts. she repeats words until he spells like come,go sit down etc... believe me this works...

A. if the child is 2 and half years old saying few words we should not worry if other milestones are proper just try to interact and the child will gradually learn sentences

A. to make the baby speak, keep encouraging the baby more and more.. keep questioning about everything and everytime.. break the words and sentence and let the baby repeat after you.. let the baby mingle with same age groups..
