Video Round Up

I ran across some videos:

Here is an average three year old. You can hear her give her version of some jokes.



Here is a video of a child of similar age that has autism, who is just starting to make speech sounds.



And I ran across a long but informative and interesting speech discussing the language development of children with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS), based off of the University of California Television website.

Learning Objectives

Some of what I hope people will learn from this blog:

-Approximately when and if a child is showing signs of late speaking, and the natural variation of when children learn language.
-What are some of the causes of late speaking children.
-What are some things parents could do if their child is showing signs of late speaking.
