Did you know your toddler is already starting to understand important question words like 'what,' 'who,' and 'where'? 🤩 They’re simple, direct, and easily connect to the very things that toddlers are most interested in right now, making them easier for your little one to grasp, while 'when' and 'why' questions take more time to understand. Want to help your little one build on these early language skills? Try: 🔍 Playing 'Where is it?' by hiding a toy and letting them find it. 📖 Asking 'Who is that?' when looking at family photos or books. 🌲 Pointing to objects and saying 'What is that?' to boost word learning. 🍎Introducing the word why in your daily routine, “Why do we need to wash our hands? Because we’re about to eat!” ⚽Using phrases like “This is how we kick the ball.” Don’t try to do all of them at once; focus on one word for a week or two. Soon your toddler will begin to show evidence of understanding, even if they can’t yet articulate the words on their own! What’s your toddler’s favorite question right now? 💭
