[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure all the posters here are well meaning, but this child is 22 months, can't sit through a story, and only has a few words which may or may not be used communicatively. I think regular preschool programs and "little gym" type activities are off base here. OP, language, play, and learning are all tied together at this age, along with social interaction. The best way you can help your child is by learning ways to get him to play and communicate with you (simple games like peek-a-boo or tickle). From there you can build in more "educational" activities. If he has a cognitive delay you will not be able to "teach it away" but you can help him. Do you have any of the Hanen books, like More Than Words or It Takes Two to Talk? Those have really good ideas in them.[/quote]
