Hi everyone, My elder boy is a non stop chatterbox, but my (just) 2 year old has very few words (ie Mum, car, miaow, hair'. Would you say this is normal for aged 2, or is he a bit behind?? thanks so much

My son has really started to talk with 27 months. Since then, he talks like a waterfall. He is now 3 years and 6 months old. My daughter has started to talk a few words with 8 months and really started to talk with 11/12 months. She is now 9 years and 3 months old. I would say, give your son a little more time.

Hi there, That sounds pretty normal to me. Every child develops differently. I would say that at 2yrs it's a little early to make any conclusions as to whether there are any speech developmental issues. Give him some time. My son is 2yrs 7ms now and makes simple sentences, whereas his littles girlfriend (same age) speaks in proper sentences and understands fully. Just keep interacting with your child and engage him/ her in conversations. Cheers

Hi! It's about the same with my two boys. The older one is talking all day, the little one (he's two) doesn't say a lot. But he starts to repeat things his brother or one of us parents is saying. And our children's doctor says this can still be considered as 'normal'. With two years of age they should be getting started to talk but they don't have to be talking a lot. The doctor said 40 words spoken by himself or repeated after someone is the usual amoung children are able to speak at this age.
