  • There are many factors that can cause your child to not develop their speech and language skills at the expected times. These are the expected times: - At 12-15 months, we expect that your child should have between 3-5 words. At 18 months, between 25- 50 words. At 2 years, between 200-300 words. At 3 years, your child should have 1,000 words. At 4 years, your child should have over 1,500 words. #speech #language #speechdelay #languagedelay #speechtherapy #latetalker
