Modelling speech to your child is one of the most important elements to remember. So, catch yourself talking to others, your child, yourself most of the day. 

Reading, reading and more reading of picture books will capture his interest, allow him to hear the correct sounding of words and is a lovely opportunity to share the enjoyment of a story. Don’t forget to use plenty of exclamation in your voice, discuss the pictures and ask your child lots of questions about the story.
