🌟Unlocking the Milestone of Language Development! 🗣️🌟
At Spot Centre, we know that watching your child find their voice is one of the most exciting parts of parenthood. But do you know if their language skills are on track? Our latest guide breaks down the key milestones for Understanding and Speaking for ages 4, 5 and 6:
🌈Age 4: Children are beginning to master “wh-“ questions, following two-part instructions, and using conjunctions like “because” to form longer sentences.
🌈Age 5: This is the year of “how” questions and sequences! They start understanding time concepts (yesterday/tomorrow) and begin telling stories with a clear plot.
🌈Age 6: Language becomes a tool for complex problem-solving. At this stage, children can follow multi-step instructions, understand cause and effect, and tell “true” stories with a beginning, middle, and end.
💫Understanding these building blocks is essential for supporting your child’s journey toward reading and writing 🎊
