An infant appeared in your house.It causes delight and tenderness. I want to see his smile as soon as possible, to hear the long-awaited "aga". How many steps in development will a little man pass before he speaks or takes the first step? We will consider one of the stages in the development of the speech of the baby: when the children begin to walk.
The very first sound released by a child is a cry.With his help, he makes it clear to the outside world that he is hungry, sick or something he does not like. Within two weeks the newborn responds to the mother's voice. He stops crying as soon as they start talking to him. At the end of the second month, the child's cry changes. The sound of the vowels "a" and "y" clearly appears. A little later they are joined by "s" and a pair of consonants - "g" and "m". This is the first stage when children start to walk. It is called gukaniem. A jerky consonant, softened by a vowel, and gives, when pronounced, familiar to all "gu", "gy", which as the child grows into "aga" and "agy".
I must say that a big role in speech developmentthe kid is played by parents. Communication for 3-month-old crumbs is just as important as for an adult. He reacts to the grumbling mother with a smile, movements of pens and legs, and even "echoes" with her. Conversely, babies, with whom they hardly speak, noted a later development of speech.
Of course, when children begin to walk, the transitionfrom one sound to another does not happen immediately. The child performs repeated repetitions of vowels and consonants, as if studying their pronunciation. In general, the process itself occurs spontaneously. His heyday falls on 4-6 months of life baby. At first it is only a reaction to the presence of adults, and then, which is a very important moment in the development of speech, and an independent action. For example, if the crumb is awake and has a good mood, it is not necessary for someone to be around so that he "gets to talking." An interesting fact is that children of different nationalities, despite the peculiarities of the language environment, pronounce the first sounds almost identically. And only after six months, this "communication", gradually turning into babbling, acquires a characteristic sounding of their native language.
Many parents are interested in the time frame.They often wonder: "When do children start to walk and when they finish, turning to babbling?" Each case is strictly individual. Therefore, it is not necessary to sound an alarm if your friends are already guzzling, and your child (2 months old) does not walk. We can name only approximate age limits of this period in the development of children - from two to three to six to seven months.
