So why is my child so precocious(超常)? Well, I believe her remarkable gift is down to my great friend and language expert, Nicola Lathey. When Minnie was just ten weeks old, Nicola came to meet her. Nicola said to me, “Minnie is very chatty. We’ve just been having a lovely long conversation.” Then she showed me how she was keeping eye contact and waiting for Minnie to make a noise. When Minnie paused, Nicola would utter something about the same length back to her, pause again, look at Minnie and wait for her to respond. She went back and forth in this way for about five minutes. Apparently, this is an early form of conversation.
In fact, Nicola told me that Minnie would have been able to start talking with me like this from around four weeks. Not only that, but babies even start learning language in the Womb too. So, we should begin chatting to our baby, while looking into their eyes, as soon as they are born. The earlier we talk to them, the more in tune with our language they’ll be and the quicker they’ll learn it. The sooner you get started, the better.
Researchers studied the impact of a child’s early environment(before they are two)on their language, and found that children whose parents talked to them a lot at home went on to achieve higher scores in tests of languages, reading and maths when they entered school. So by giving your child the gift of conversation, you really are giving them the best possible start in life.
