Using Requests For Child Speech Development

Video Transcript

This next video uses the same game and vocabulary in a different way. Depending on the child’s preference, he or she may enjoy the sensory input that movement provides. Requesting was a target goal of this activity. After each cycle of the game, I queued the child to express her wants using verbalizations in gestures of more please, when she attempted to do so I would reward her with another cycle of the game. You want more? Oh, you say more please. You want more? Up, up, up.
