In the second year of life, the child is actively forming speech. It becomes easier for parents to communicate with them. However, at this age children do not distinguish all the words and therefore their understanding of speech is limited (for example, "thunder" and "dwarf", "mustache" and "clock", etc.). At this age, the kid willingly fulfills and understands simple instructions. For example, get a toy, push the chair away. Children are attracted to everything that is sounding, moving and alive, associated with joyful positive emotions. Use this feature and various games to develop a child's speech for 2 years.
What are games for?
Undoubtedly, the development of speech in a child is closely related to the level of knowledge, the general development of thinking about the world around. Games are necessary for the child in order to develop his logic, thinking, speech. This is facilitated by everyday conversations and reading books. But you can choose a game that will only focus on developing the speech of the baby.
At this age the baby reacts to everything new. To focus and interest the child, show him a new object, then hide it and show it again. It intrigues children, evokes joyful emotions. In this case, repeated repetition of a new word is used. Interest in everything new does not arise on its own. Therefore, it is necessary to interest the child, offer him new ways of playing, cause a desire to speak.
Games for the development of speech
Sit with the child at the window and start talking with him about what you see on the street. Try to ask your child questions all the time. For example, if the child says "home", then ask him: "Is he big or small? What color is the roof? ", Etc. Maintain the desire of the baby to talk. Find in magazines, books pictures with a picture of what you have already seen. Show them to your child, reminding you of what you have seen and talked about. Thus, the child will acquire speech skills.
You can offer the child to repeat for you simple and uncomplicated rhymes. It is very useful for the development of speech.
Talk to the baby on the phone. The child does not see the interlocutor, so he can not show him anything with gestures, and this contributes to the active development of oral speech. But do not allow this conversation to be limited only to hearing the conversations of a grandmother, mom or dad, and try to ensure that the child himself actively participated in the conversation. Ask first simple questions, to which he can answer with the words "no" or "yes", then gradually complicate them.
In the process of playing with cars, puppets, little animals, soldiers, ask as many questions as possible from "your" character to the character of the child. Be interested in how the game will develop further, where this or that toy will go, what will it be, what will it take with itself and so on.
Make a bag of multi-colored fabric and put small toys in it. Show it to the child and begin to take out each toy from the bag (machine, bear, squirrel, house, etc.) one by one, handing them to the baby. Ask the child to look at all these toys. When the child gets to know them, ask them to put the toys back in the bag. At the same time, call each toy and make sure that it is the child who put it in the bag.
When you communicate or play with your child, then show and call in the games a variety of activities. For example, how can you jump in place, spin, crouch, lower and raise your hands, etc. Then ask the kid to perform these actions under your command: "Jump, get up, sit, swing, etc." This game will help to fix the passive vocabulary of the child.
Take a sheet of paper and pencils. Teach the child to conduct vertical, horizontal and rounded lines (closed and unclosed). To each line, give your name: "Track", "Stream", "Sun", "Grass", "Ball", etc. Helping the child, invite him to paint, and then discuss with him what he did. The drawing should be similar to the item that was named.
Easy words are usually pronounced by the kid completely, but difficult syllables can be missed and only a single syllable can be pronounced from the whole word. Therefore, try to immediately teach your child to pronounce the words correctly, so that the wrong pronunciation is not fixed with him.
