My three year old is speaking complete sentences with correct syntax and grammar. And the ideas that he expresses are mostly sane. The next challenge is getting him to stop talking for a minute or two.
Kids understand language well before they’re able to speak it, and so I think he has about two years of backlogged thoughts that he’s trying to get out as soon as possible.
My 18mo has come a long way in understanding what we’re saying recently, and even communicating back in his own way. My nephew just stayed over for a week and that kid doesn’t know his mouth can just be. Constant talking.
He’s sixth months now and can say his first word: “mum” - without knowing what it’s good for.
He can flip from his back to his stomach and back again easily.
He can grab and hold things with so much precision.
And he’s definitely the cutest and calmest little boy in the world (sorry, other parents) 😋
My 11 month old drank from a water fountain. We expected him to play in it, but he leaned in like a school child who had been doing it all their life and pursed his lips and took a slurp.
