The environment itself is also a significant factor. Children learn the specific dialect that the people around them speak.

every child’s language reflects the identities, values, and experiences of the child’s family and community.

Parents need to treat their children as if they are itty-bitty conversationalists, even if they are not yet talking or signing. Children learn early on about how conversations work as long as they have experiences with conversing adults. This may include taking turns speaking, looking attentively at the other person, using facial expressions, etc.

Encouraging interaction among children is a must do. Peer learning plays a big part in language development, especially in mixed-age groups. Activities involving a wide range of materials should promote talk. There should be a balance between individual activities and those that nurture collaboration and discussion, such as dramatic play, block building, book sharing, or games.

Parents, caregivers, childcare workers, and guardians are the main resources for language development in kids. Children can learn a lot from each other, but adults are the main conversationalists, questioners, listeners, responders, and sustainers of language development and growth in the Childs environment.
