Exercises for language stimulation should be easy and simple; Language therapy is beneficial and helps reduce parental concerns, such as:
Why does the child not speak?
How can I help improve expression and language in children?
The activities help to favor the acquisition of vocabulary. It is necessary to remember that in order to use a certain vocabulary it is important that the child accepts it, understands it and learns it so that it expresses it spontaneously as follows:
- When playing
- When speaking spontaneously
It must fulfill particularities in terms of its function, therefore, it learns faster and can use them in its vocabulary.
How is a child approached to start language stimulation?
Starts in the phase of:
Experience. Children cannot be taught vocabulary if, therefore, context and experience have not been generated. For learning to occur, children must be able to:
- To be able to feel or touch, to differentiate odors, so that they can feel the words and in this way the child generates the meaning of the cognitive level that will be given to that action so that he can know how to use and associate the language.
Repeat. The child should be taught to repeat different contexts or in the same context the word, doing it differently is also part of the therapy.
Words must be functional. When the word is made functional, it will meet a goal for children and thus serve to cover a need, help express, in the relationship of requests, it must be a word that yes or yes, is of benefit and helps you communicate.
Ease of articulation. When it is facilitated for the child to improve and have a correct articulation, he is given the opportunity to adapt and be able to be fluent. Children are helped in a more complex pronunciation of words.
Activities that help improve language stimulation
The activities should be based on the complement of skills and / or improvement of functions that the words themselves should have.
Activities.
Basket with colored toys. We want to achieve the increase in functional words with children. When children hold a toy they examine it and visualize texture, color, among others.
The way they can stimulate language is based on holding the toy and then dropping it. With this, the children will have an intersection and respond to what happens; When using the tools based on the games, the verbs fulfill a correct performance, which come into operation so that the child integrates the movement with the verbs that, therefore, will give more meaning.
