💬 Between the ages of 2 and 3, children have a huge jump in language skills:
At age 2, most children can follow directions and say 50 or more words. Many combine words in short phrases and sentences. Children this age usually can follow two-step instructions, such as “pick up the ball and bring it to Daddy.”
By age 3, a toddler’s vocabulary usually is 200 or more words, and many can string together three- or four-word sentences. Children at this stage of language development can understand more and speak more clearly.
By now, you should be able to understand about 75% of what your toddler says. 😃
When you think of a preschool, what do you envision? Are you afraid that your child is still too small to be placed in a structured environment? Does it scare you how they might cope with the separation?
Well, don’t be. Preschool can only help your child.
Children gain a lot from going to preschool because they become exposed to numbers, letters, and shapes there. But, more importantly, they develop social and emotional skills and learn how to get along with other children, to share and to contribute.
