[quote=Anonymous]This was very similar to my situation a year and a half ago. My 3 y/o had approx. 10 words at that age (and certainly not in every day use) even though she could follow similar directions and pointing exercises. We spoke to our pediatrician about and she was happy to provide a referral if we really wanted one, but we mutually decided to re-evaluate at the 2y visit. Her language picked up shortly thereafter and you would never, ever know she was a late talker. You might try incorporating more music in. With the caveat that I know there are a lot of sincerely-felt and strongly-held views on screen time and understand why people hold them, and what AAP recommends -- my daughter watched a lot of Lisa Loeb Nursery Rhyme Parade and Julie Andrews musicals last Spring when daycare was closed and I was on work calls. The songs seem to help with her spoken vocabulary. I've also heard good things about the Hanen books though I have not read them. [/quote]
