Research has proved that kids of 2 years old and younger with broader vocabularies are better prepared for kindergarten.

If you want your children to fully benefit in their further education, try and boost their vocabularies. This will help them in the future career, socialization and education. It is your responsibility to help your kids broaden their vocabulary. 

1. Forget the Annoying Baby Talk

Toddlers are so cute that you usually forget that they are no babies. Forget the baby talk consisting of ‘ga gas’ and ‘goo goos’. Toddlers are ready to learn to speak. And baby talk is not what they really need at their age. There is absolutely no need to make your child learn advanced stuff or talk about something that a toddler cannot properly comprehend. Just sound natural and speak in an everyday and normal tone. In this manner your child will soon learn to form sentences and correctly pronounce words. This tip is great for those who want their kids to develop better learning and communication skills.

2. Read Every Night

Reading together with your kids is another efficient way to improve and broaden their vocabulary. Read fairy-tales, poems and interesting stories every night. You can do it during the day, too. Reading together is both entertaining and educational. Your new habit will soon turn into a pleasant ritual and improve your connection with your toddler. Once you see the child is ready to read aloud, take turns in reading. Hopefully, your child will carry on this love for books and reading into adulthood.
