This week on Helpline in Focus, author and speech pathologist Sonia Bestulic helps parents understand their child’s speech development. She helps parents with the following scenarios:

  • A two-and-a-half-year-old who has roughly 20 words but rarely connects two
  • Does a three-year-old with new grommets need ongoing support from a speech pathologist?
  • A four-and-a-half-year-old who speaks a lot (and so fast that others can’t always understand him)
  • An almost-five-year-old who can’t pronounce her Ls and Rs
  • A five-year-old who talks a lot (and fast) but also mumbles a lot
  • How to help a child with a speech sound disorder who has just started kindergarten learn to read
  • How many words should a 16-month-old have?
  • Understanding lisps
