We use this approach with our two-year-old. He has never had baby talk, we use the proper words for everything, and he gets multiple reading sessions per day - which he enjoys.
Health professoinals have told us that he speaks with the proficiency of a 3-4 year old, and he is noticeably more advanced than his peers. To me this is plain common sense and doesn't need a scientific paper.
- kurtosis 16y agoare you serious about this common sense business? There are a lot of plausible reasons why "baby talk" could actually be essential for linguistic or emotional development. While it does seem dumbed down to an adult, in some ways it simplifies language and conversational protocols. How would you know who is right without a scientific study?
