Oh by the way, Baby Anda, have you also heard about research that advises again over exposure to "screen time" which incloudes TV, video, computers and anything that uses a screen really.

It is recommended that children under the age of 2 years should not be exposed to more than a total of half an hour a day as research has shown that over exposure can contribute to effects of speech delay

Baby Anda, I was just thinking about what you said about your baby being exposed to 4 languages as to why you think it might be affecting your baby's speech progress.

Even so, it would be good if your baby could have one primary language besides being able to understand the other 3 languages.

That is what we are  doing with our son as well who is exposed to 2 languages. He can now communicate in both languages but still has a primary language that he would tend to use. Maybe that might help things with your baby.

the second file attachment one now is the explanation behind it all

Here are the two file attachments on PROTOCOL FOR SPEECH DELAY again at the request of baby Anda

okay good to know that

hi Elise
the information I sent to "allthatiam" is the same 2 files that I have attached to my previous posts which was  today's and on the 9 Oct. If you need other information, I will try to source it for you

Yes we did start the exercises. Initially my son ( 2 years and 9 months) was quite resistant so we had to make it  as if it were a game. You really do need 2 people to do the exercises with the child. You might want to do the exercise for half the period of the stated time before increasing it gradually when your child becomes more accustomed to it. Did you try playing some soothing music in the background while you did the exercise?

I find that if I prayed about it beforehand, it also made a difference and he was more compliant.

We also did notice a difference when we started including lecithin in his diet, about 1 tablespoon a day in his breakfast cereal for about a week now. His words became clearer even within a few days and he is beginning to say more words each day as we go along. He also began to string words together a bit more and even managed a complete sentence of his own which took me completely by surprise. It really is touchig to see his progress and gladens my heart.

Before,this, we sometimes felt quite helpless when we couldn't meet his needs if we couldn't understand him since he had trouble expressing himself. I guess it's a process and journey over time as we slowly learn to understand him more. It's still early days yet.

For our next step we plan to add flavoured cod liver oil supplement as suggested. Hopefully he will like it. We feel that by taking things step by step helps us know what's really working for him.

Hopefully, you will have some good succees too   

By the way for those who are interested, I have managed to get the other file re-formatted in order to upload it......so here it is in the attachement
 

Ok will do so. I would have put it on the forum but just that I have problems attaching the file because of the format one of the files is in.

After you receive it from me, pls can you put the other file which has the report from the brain therapy manual on this forum to share with others if you can find a way to do so.

Thanks and I wish you all the best with the exercises. Don't forget about including lecithin in the diet too as written in the report

hi

I'm not sure if you will find this helpful but I recently came across an article by a speech therapist who did a thesis on speech delay.She gave me a page from her brain therapy manual including an exercise that you can do with your child to help to work the brain in "opening up" speech

If your would like me to e-mail the information to you, please let me have your e-mail contact.

hi ! Some people have told me that speech delay might have to do with the fact that more than one language is spoken in the house especially to the toddler himself. Not sure if there is any truth in this. I am wondering about this myself as I speak to my toddler in Chinese while my hubby speaks to him in English.

But apart from that, our toddler seems to have almost all the traits listed in the Einstein syndrome. He has recently started speaking in Chinese to me (one word each time) but used to just speak to me in English more before that (also usually one word) This might have to do with the fact that he hears English more in the house as I speak to my hubby in English.

Our toddler now often translates things to me from English to Chinses and vice versa. When he first did that, translating, I mean, I nearly fell over from surprise.. He has just turned 27 months and can read words from LR both in Chinese and English

Yes, I agree with Mandaplus3. Be very enthusiastic and keep it exciting when reading to your little one. I found out when I did that, adding in little funny/silly noises to emphasise the words, my toddler got much more interested in the book and actually kept asking for the book again and again, Then when we read the book together again later, he would point out the words by himeself and say them out. Then he would look at me and imitate me to make the same funny/silly noises and grin at me. That sent me into stiches laughing so much and we had so much fun then

I was just wondering if the language used for Little Music was the United States form of  English, does that mean that the time names of the notes are also the United States form of names like whole note instead of semibreve etc?

Can one actually choose which form of English one prefers for Little Music?

I was just wondering if the content of each day's lesson for Little Musician was expected to be done at one sitting each time or if it was intended to be broken up into a few periods? It seems a little long to be done all at one go
