Tips to help the child develop their speaking and hearing skills



 Tips to help the child develop their speaking and hearing skills

There are some good tips to help the child develop their speaking and hearing skill. First parents are required to have plan. Each day do an enjoyable activity with the child for 30 minutes like read a story, go for walk in the park and communicate with the child. Tell the child to hear sounds like birds and traffic to to improve their listening. Also count the number of things they see like count swings in the park this helps with math and language. Simple activity can help the child with communication skills.

When your child reach the target, celebrate their success and have family enjoy their achievement, give stickers price or favorite food and also make a progress report to see the difference from beginning.


Pick various materials from around your setting. This can be anything that will make a good noise when scrunched up, for example bubble wrap; tissue paper or wrapping paper.

● Show the materials to the child and begin scrunching and contorting them - discuss the commotions they make.


● In the event that the child can hold the actual materials, let them cause the commotions while you to give a running critique about the various clamors.


● Remark on the thing the child is doing - utilize redundant words like 'loud' and 'gone'. Support the words with your look. So when the child is making the clamor, scrunch up your face and say "loud!" This transforms the child's activities into a game.


For more older children (as long as year and a half)

Pick one or two compartments, for example margarine tubs; bowls; cups, and various things to place in them, for example wooden squares scrunched-up paper; water.


● Set aside some margin to put the things you have picked into the compartments.


● The child will appreciate filling various holders and pouring the items starting with one then onto the next.


● Converse with the child about paying attention to the various commotions - cup your hand around your ear when you discuss 'tuning in'. Discuss how the items sound, for example "The squares go bang", "Could you at any point hear the water as I pour it in the cup?"


For little children (year and a half 3 years)

Pick a melodic toy or a morning timer (begin with a toy that makes a boisterous commotion and continue on toward a calmer toy).


● Conceal the toy in a genuinely clear spot in the room.


● Urge the child to track down the toy by paying attention to its sound. Make a game like, "Tune in the toy and ask the child to search that object, ask him that if he might point out the place where the sound is coming from? Where could it be?"


● Different kids can help by being peaceful while a singular youngster has their turn. This likewise empowers perception and turn-taking abilities.


For preschool kids (3-5 years)

●Pick a most loved story that the child knows well. Let him know that each time you say a specific word you believe them should finish an activity.

Listen up!

How many things a child hears if you’re quiet?

● Encourage the child to be quiet and listen very focusly to the environment around them. It’s likely that there will be background noises that we normally shut out – a dog barking, traffic noise and people talking to other rooms.

● Talk about the sounds you can hear and keep a record of what sounds can be heard and where.

● Go for a walk around (outside or inside) the building and listen for noises. Are the noises similar or different to the ones you’ve already heard?

● For older children, talk about the fact we have learnt how to ‘shut out’ noises that we don’t need to listen to. If children find this difficult, you can help by saying their name or having a ‘listen’ signal, e.g. a hand-clap.

Support children’s listening throughout the day – ensure that they don’t have lots of different things to listen to at the same time. Help them by turning off background music to create a quieter environment where children can focus on the sounds that they need to hear.

 The speech of the child:

Written language which includes dictation and reading involves articulate language in it's complete mechanism, auditory , central and motor paths, and in the way of development encouraged by method,is based essentially on articulate language.

Written language may therefore, be considered from two points of view:

a) That of the mastery of a new language of great social importance which is added to the spoken language of the natural man.This is the cultural meaning which is usually attached to written language,which is therefore taught in  schools without any regard for its relationships with a spoken language,and only with the intention of offering to social man a means necessary for making contacts with the environment.

b)  That of the connection between written and spoken language and eventually possibility of using written language to improve spoken language a new consideration on which I must insist and one which gives to written language psychological and physiological importance.

Let us think of the irrationality of these methods. We have analyzed the written signs rather than the physiological acts necessary to produce the alphabetic signs, yet the visible representations of the signs have no hereditary connection with the motor side of their execution as for example the auditory expression of the word has with the motor mechanism of spoken language. It is therefore always,difficult to provoke an excito motor action unless movement has already been prepared for its arrival. The idea cannot act directly on the motor nerves,which is all the more apparent when the idea itself is incomplete and incapable of sustaining a feeling which excites the will.
