There's nothing more sublime than hearing your child say "Mama" or "Dada" for the first time. Perhaps that's why so many parents become concerned when their child misses this developmental milestone or uses only a few words after 18 months of learning. Teaching your child to speak requires little more than patience and the following tips.

1.Don't panic! Some children wait until they are 3 or 4 years old to speak. These toddlers spend their time soaking up information and usually burst into speech when the time is right. An average 10 to 20-month-old child learns 10 new words a day.
Is important to carefully monitor what you say and what they hear.
2. Keep them healthy. A sleepy child is cranky and less willing to learn new things. A rounded diet will provide a child with the nutrition it needs.
3.Fill the child's environment with stimulation.
4.Read to your child. Pick a story that's on your child's level and read to them with excitement and enthusiasm while pointing to the pictures and naming objects.
5.Use flash cards to create a learning game for your child. Many cards come with pictures of common items such as fruits,animals , places...
6.Talk to your children. Speak to them at bath time, in their high chairs, at the grocery store ,wherever you are... Speak plainly and often, vary your tone to convey excitement, disappointment or surprise... and eventually, a you'll find your baby has been listening all along..
