Скачать или смотреть Speech Strategy #30: Use Functional Words With Your Toddler

Functional words are short, powerful words like more, up, go, open, and help. These words matter because they let your child get something or make something happen—which makes them super motivating to use!

Try pairing these words with cause-and-effect activities your toddler already loves:

🚗 Say go when pushing a toy car.

🙌 Model up when lifting them.

🍪 Use more when giving another bite or snack.

When kids see that their words make things happen, they’re more likely to keep using them—building the foundation for communication growth. 💬
