[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 22 months old boy has cognition delay & only a few words. He has been seeing therapists from EI for the last couple months, maybe 15 classes so far, but not big improvement yet. I am more worried about his cognition delay. He has no problem learning or playing or figuring a new toy or wood puzzles/shape sorters. The problem is he is not interested and cannot recognize anything from a book, e.g. first 100 words, baby animals etc. He is easily to get distracted and lose focus. He just wants to play toys than learning. Anythings I can try or tips?[/quote]

Op, this an example of play based strategies:  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DO_sneeTZDQ

This child happens to have autism but how the SLP is teaching the grandmother how to interact/play is generalizable to lots of kinds of kids.

Also patience on your end is key.  Celebrate the little victories.  Kids can change and grow so much.  Give yourself a lot of credit for intervening early.  I have a SN kid who is 10.  We started ST at 2 through EI: we still do ST.  It's a marathon not a sprint.
