How can I encourage my child to speak more?

There are several effective strategies! You can start by engaging them in conversations, using open-ended questions.

What kind of open-ended questions should I ask?

Try asking questions like, 'What was the best part of your day?' or 'How do you feel about this story?'

Should I correct them if they make mistakes?

It's best to gently guide them rather than correct them directly. Encourage their efforts and model correct speech.

Are there specific activities that can help?

Absolutely! Reading together, playing interactive games, and singing songs can all promote speech development.
