We offer you a series of games aimed at developing the child's speech.

think of words

The game promotes the development of imagination and speech. Expands the child's vocabulary

◈ Rules of the game: you need to select and name words starting with a certain letter of the alphabet.

◈ Hang on the wall in the children's alphabet and choose the letters with the child in turn.

Think faster!

Equipment needed: ball.

◈ Rules of the game: you throw the ball to the child, naming the thematic group, and he must return the ball to you, naming the object from this group. For example: furniture - sofa; berries - strawberries, etc.

one many

The game contributes to the development of attention, speech

Equipment needed: ball.

◈ Rules of the game: you throw the ball, naming an object in the singular, the child returns the ball, indicating the plural form. For example: apple - apples, city - cities, letter - letters.

◈ To make the game more difficult, name objects in the accusative or genitive form, for example:

I don't have an apple. - I don't have any apples.

I see a house. - I see houses.

Tell me..

The game promotes development, speech, spatial orientation

◈ Tell your child that you have arrived, for example, from another country and do not know anything about what surrounds you now. Let the baby be your guide and answer your questions.

◈ Ask about all the objects around you, asking questions, encourage the child to a detailed detailed story: “What is this? And what is it for? Who is using? What is it made of? Where does it come from? and so on.

◈ Develop spatial awareness by asking, “What is to our right? Who is walking behind? What passed in front of us?

Make an offer

◈ Invite the child to make a sentence from the selected words. For example, “river, house, white” - “A house with a white roof stands on the river bank” or “In winter, the roofs of houses and rivers turn white from snow”, etc.

◈ Start with a small set - the number of words should not exceed three.

Guess the description

The game contributes to the development of speech, imagination

◈ Invite the child to guess the object that you thought of, according to the description of its features, for example, round, smooth, rubber, bouncing off the ground (ball). Or: round, smooth, sweet, red inside, green outside (watermelon), etc.

◈ Ask your child to think of and describe their object.

Guess by action

The game contributes to the development of speech, imagination

◈ As in the previous game, you think of something, but describe not the signs, but the actions that the object produces, for example: “Drives along the road, carries passengers, stops at bus stops, refuels with gasoline” (bus) -, “Works in hospital or polyclinic, treats the sick, wears a white coat” (doctor), etc.

◈ Change roles - the child guesses and describes, you guess.

good and bad

The game contributes to the development of speech, imagination. Develops thinking

◈ Invite the child to identify bad and good traits or actions in the heroes of fairy tales. For example:

♦ Fairy tale "Cat, rooster and fox". The rooster woke up the cat for work, cleaned the house, cooked dinner - that's good. But he did not obey the cat and looked out the window when the fox called him - this is bad.

◈ Ask the child to pick up as many definitions as possible for the chosen word. For example, a tree - what is it? You can fix the number of definitions and name only five for each word

◈ This game is also great for a group of kids, even if the kids are of different ages.

What where When

The game contributes to the development of speech, the assimilation of the grammatical foundations of the Russian language, coordination of movement

Equipment needed: ball.

For example, everything is round (warm, soft), pets, dishes, furniture...

Useful hide and seek

The game contributes to the development of attention, helps to study the prepositions under, on, in

◈ Invite your child to play hide and seek with a fairy tale. Come up with a short story and ask your child to do what you say. For example: “Once upon a time there was a girl Sofia. Once he and his mother were playing hide and seek. Sofia thought and thought and decided to hide under the table. Mom looks - her daughter is not there. Where is she? Maybe under the sofa? I looked - it's not there. Or maybe under a chair? And there isn't. Ah, that's where it is - under the table. Then you tell how the girl hid in the closet, climbed onto a chair and hid.

◈ Or you can take any toy and play hide and seek with it. Then switch roles - let the child hide the toy and tell.

The development of speech in preschool children is of great importance. Properly formed and developed speech is the basis for further success in teaching a child at school. If a child interchanges syllables or sounds in his speech, he will write and read in the same way. A meager vocabulary will prevent the child from retelling texts, writing summaries, essays, and explaining problem solving. Trying to correct such omissions a couple of months before school is a pointless exercise that will bring nothing but stress to the child. But in a couple of years it can be done even at home. Games for the development of speech, correctly selected for children 5-6 years old, can help with this.

Speech on the threshold of the school: characteristic features

Upon reaching the age of 5 - 6 years, the child is already sufficiently fluent in his native language: its grammar, phonetics, vocabulary. He is able to express his thoughts emotionally, coherently and logically, but at the same time consistently and expressively.

If we talk about the development of speech at 5 - 6 years, then its features are as follows.

Lexicon.

In the active dictionary of a preschooler at this age, there can be up to 3 thousand words. He understands many general terms (animals, birds - wild or domestic, berries, trees, transport, professions). The conceptual apparatus includes a wide variety of topics: a child is able to think, for example, not only about the change of seasons and the behavior of animals, but also about such complex things as dreams, space, love, family. In speech, there are practically no pronunciation errors in the form of added, rearranged or replaced syllables or sounds. This is possible only with polysyllabic words that are rarely used (excavator, hairdresser, armored personnel carrier). But, as a rule, if adults have drawn the child's attention to this mistake, he does not repeat it again.

Grammar.

Toddlers of this age are able to answer a question on a familiar topic, building a complete detailed sentence. By the age of 6, the child's phrases are becoming longer, more common, most of the words are used in the correct form. Sometimes there are speech errors (“theirs”, “bears”).

Pronunciation.

Usually, by the age of six, the speech apparatus of a preschooler - in the absence of anatomical abnormalities (high palate, short hyoid frenulum) - is fully formed, and there are practically no difficulties with pronunciation of sounds. Possible problems with articulation - incorrect setting of the tongue when pronouncing the sounds [r] and [l] (their replacement with other sounds or omission in speech). Sometimes sizzling suffer. Children at this age are already able to notice incorrect pronunciation in themselves and others. If by the age of 5-6 a preschooler has problems with the pronunciation of certain sounds, most likely he will not be able to cope with them on his own - he will need the help of a specialist.

Connected speech.

Older preschoolers are able to retell the read work, compose a coherent story based on a picture or a group of related pictures, come up with the beginning or end of the proposed story, share their impressions about interesting events, the cartoon they watched, games with friends. They already know how to consciously select the most appropriate words to express their feelings and thoughts. Children accurately describe objects, and also find the right object according to the description.

expressiveness.

A 5-6 year old child can speak softer or louder, slower or faster. He knows how to speak in a whisper, recite verses with expression by heart, choosing the right intonations, making logical pauses.

How can games help?

The game form is most favorable for mastering various skills, including speech. Properly selected games contribute to the improvement of various aspects of speech, the culture of communication.

The main directions for the development of speech of older preschoolers in the form of a game:

intonation and dynamic expressiveness of speech;
correct tempo, rhythm;
clarity of pronunciation;
setting the correct stress;
the ability to put words in the correct grammatical forms;
the ability to clearly and fully formulate one's thoughts;
vocabulary enrichment;
development of monologue and dialogic speech;
formation of prerequisites for the development of written speech.

At the same time, it is important that the child perceives all tasks as a call to participate in the game, and not a boring activity (repeat, give an example, find). Accordingly, the child's motivation for playing activities and interest in them are much higher than in speech development lessons. So, the effect will be more tangible.

In the process of playing communication with a preschooler, do not “muffle” his emotions, feelings, let's give them the opportunity to express them. Otherwise, the child's need for communication as such will gradually decrease, which means that speech activity will also decrease. If at some point the child cannot find the right word, let him express his thought by connecting facial expressions, gestures, and plasticity.

Every game has its own goal

Finding or inventing a speech development game is not so difficult. The main thing is to understand that each type of game has its own goal, achieving which, the child develops one or another skill.

All exercises and games for children 5-6 years old can be divided into 4 groups.

Games that develop the sound culture of speech. In them, the child improves phonemic hearing, learns to determine the location of the sound in a single word or sentence, the number of syllables in a word; select words with the desired sound or with the specified number of syllables.
Games for understanding the grammatical structure of native speech. Such game exercises teach children to learn the correct, normative use of words in a sentence, coordinating nouns and adjectives by gender, number, case, verbs - by tense, aspect and mood.
Games that contribute to the replenishment of vocabulary. While playing, the child learns about words-objects, words-actions, words-signs, learns to coordinate them with each other, choose the most suitable word in this case from his active vocabulary, work with synonyms and antonyms in speech.
Games that contribute to the development of coherent speech. In other words, teaching storytelling. It is closely related to all previous types of games (lexical stock, sound culture, grammar). The child learns to compose not just a coherent text, but a text that is logical, thoughtful, filled with meaning.

The following are examples of games in each group. It is not necessary to “replay” them all in one day and tire the child. You can spend some time on 1-2 games, which, as you lose interest in them, are replaced by new ones. Having studied the meaning of each game, parents will be able to come up with many similar tasks for their children.

Development of sound culture

The games below contribute to the development of the skills of recognizing sounds in words, dividing words into syllables. This will help to avoid mistakes in pronunciation in the future.

"Track".

It's more fun to play with multiple kids (or other family members). The ball is passed around. Each subsequent player names a word that begins with the last letter of the previous word.

"Find the word."

The child is offered to pick up a word with a certain sound at the beginning (middle, end), with a designated number of syllables or letters. If it didn’t work out “with a swoop”, hints-characteristics are given, the child can ask leading questions. Such a word can, for example, be put on a computer password. If the kid solves it, he will get a few minutes of a computer game. Or, say, it denotes someone who needs help today (a hamster that needs to clean its cage). Of course you have to help.

"Hatchets".

Axes for a while become the hands of the baby. When an adult calls him a word by syllables, the child must “chop off” each syllable with cotton. At the end, you can count how many syllables have been “chopped”.

"Give back the word."

The ball is thrown to the child, calling the first syllable of the word. His task is to quickly come up with an ending and “return” the finished word to the adult along with the ball. (ku - varnish, whether - stock, paint - ski).

"Trap".

The role of the trap is played by the palms of the child. They need to “catch” a certain sound in words. As soon as he heard - the "trap" "slams" (clap hands).

Formation of grammatical consistency

The coordinated use of parts of speech in sentences is the key to the correct and beautiful speech of the child. The following game exercises will help in this.

"Bag".

The adult says: "I give you a bag, you put it in it for -ok." The kid should name words ending in -ok (leaf, bun, stocking, scallop). You can play until the first miss (for example, "pie"). Or invite the baby to name a certain number of words, and then count the mistakes made. For each mistake, a “penalty” is invented - the performance of some comic task (tell a tongue twister, a poem, guess a riddle).

"Poet".

An adult reads a children's poem without finishing the last word of the rhyming lines (so that the child can pick up the rhyming ending of the line):

"We saw two forty

Without shoes and ... stockings.

"Resettlement".

An adult shows pictures depicting objects of various kinds and numbers. The kid must “settle” them into houses: in the first house the words defined by the phrase “she is mine” will live, in the second house - “he is mine”, in the third - “it is mine”, in the fourth house - “they are mine”.

"Whose is this?"

The child is shown pictures depicting body parts of different birds or animals. He must correctly answer the questions: “Whose tail is this?” “Whose paw is this?”, “Whose ear is this?” (Wolf, hare, sheep, etc.)

Replenishment of vocabulary

A rich vocabulary facilitates the expression of opinions, feelings, attitudes to what is happening, simplifies communication with other people. And in the future it will help with writing essays, reports, abstracts.

"Vice versa".

An adult throws a ball to a child, naming a word. The task of the baby is to choose the opposite word in meaning and return the ball (day - night, cold - hot, far - close).

"What is he?"

It is fun to play with several children or the whole family. An adult shows the players a picture or object and asks them to answer the question: what is it? The one with the most correct answers wins. For example: what kind of bread? White, soft, tasty, healthy, valuable, ruddy, crispy.

"What happens like that?"

The game is the reverse of the previous one. The players are called the sign of the object, to which they need to pick up as many objects as possible.

"Say otherwise."

An adult pronounces a phrase and asks the child to say the same thing, but using a different word: it is raining - drizzling, pouring; clean water - transparent; clean hands - washed.

"Agree."

Parents call the beginning of the phrase, and the baby needs to finish it. For example: “ice is cold, but fire ...”, “we see the sun during the day, and the moon ...”.

Development of coherent speech

The ability to express one's thoughts consistently and logically is necessary not only for successful further education (especially in the exact sciences), but also for productive communication with peers and other people.

"Childhood Story"

When a child asks adults to tell him interesting, memorable stories from their childhood, we can agree that this will be a mutual exchange of stories: mother - to the child, and he - to her. Let him remember something memorable for him and share his feelings about this in exchange for the story of his parents.

"Understand me".

The child needs to describe the object in the picture, without naming it, so that the other participants in the game can guess what it is about.

"Interview".

The child is offered to try on the role of a journalist and interview each family member or other relatives, especially if there is a reason (anniversary, a recent trip somewhere). Together with the baby, you can think over questions for each interviewee. The role of a microphone can be played, for example, by a comb or a screwdriver from a gaming tool kit. We should not forget in such communication (thank you, sorry, sorry for the indiscreet question).

"If only, if only."

The child should fantasize about what would happen if: “I became a wizard”, “I always remained small”, “I became invisible”, “there was no winter”, etc.

"Reportage".

Parents make a stand that tells about the recent adventure of the baby (a trip to the circus, a trip to the sea). You can stick pictures from the scene, colorfully sign them with bright felt-tip pens, draw emoticons to illustrate the mood. It is important to gather more listeners. The child is given a pointer (pencil), and he tells the audience about his adventures in detail and colors.

If the child stumbles while talking, looking for the right word, or builds sentences too primitively, help him with leading questions. It is also very useful for the development of speech.

You can find or invent many similar games. The main task of adults is to interest the child in the process of playing and help with leading questions in case of difficulties. "Entourage" for each exercise can be anything, but better - fabulous. Let him be asked to make sentences or find the right words by fairy-tale characters who need help. Then the child will develop his speech, playing and getting great pleasure - which was required to get a good effect.

Games for the development of speech of a child 2, 3 years old

Since it is at the age of two to three that there is a significant leap in the development of speech, it is advisable to pay special attention to this. In order for a child to be able to freely express his thoughts and desires, he must have a rich vocabulary. Therefore, accustom yourself to pronounce all the actions that you perform with the child.

It is necessary to teach the baby to breathe properly and develop his articulation apparatus so that the child can easily speak in long complex sentences. Articulation is very well developed by tongue twisters.

Teach your child counting. The repetition of these funny rhymes contributes to the development of the baby's speech. Several counting rhymes are given in the section "How to choose a leader." This section contains riddles; ask them to the child, analyze the answer with him. When the child remembers a few riddles or learns to invent them himself, ask riddles to each other. They develop imagination, observation and creative thinking. In addition to being an interesting pastime, with the help of riddles, you can choose a leader for games in the company: whoever guessed the riddle first, he drives.

In the period between two and three years, the child is only developing articulate speech skills. Often this happens after three years. If something is bothering you, consult a speech therapist.

In addition to breathing exercises and tongue twisters, it is necessary, while pronouncing all the actions with the child, to monitor the correct pronunciation and stress in words.

To develop a child's speech in many ways, an integrated approach is needed. When studying with a child, pay attention to the qualities, properties of a particular object, while using as many adjectives as possible for descriptions in your speech. Enrich your child's speech with synonyms, homonyms, etc.

Try to make your classes interesting and fun!

Since with proper breathing we pronounce all the words on the exhale, there are many games for training this particular phase of breathing.

A pipe and a whistle. For a child, the world is full of various sounds: some can be obtained if you knock on that little thing, others - only if you blow into this little thing. Extracting sounds, the child trains exhalation, learns causal relationships (breathed - a sound turned out).

You can start with a whistle, because to extract the sound, you just need to blow into it. Choose whistles that the child likes in appearance, comfortable for his hands and with a low whistle. Otherwise, you are guaranteed a headache.

The pipe is intended for older children. It complicates the task for the child and at the same time makes it more interesting and entertaining. After all, the pipe, having a melodic sound, allows you to get different sounds.

Soap bubbles and more. Probably, there is not a single adult who would not love soap bubbles as a child. How much fun and joy these funny balloons, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow, bring! Your child will surely love them too. After all, you can not only blow them out, but also catch them by running after them and clapping your hands.

By the way, if you are organizing a children's party with contests, then a bottle of soap bubbles will be a great prize.

Make a solution with your child or buy ready-made in the store.

Soap bubble solution recipe. To make soap bubbles quickly and easily, mix a small amount of dish soap or bubble bath and water.

You can build a castle or a mountain out of soap bubbles. Pour some water and dish soap into a glass or mug. Take straws with your baby, blow into them and watch the foam grow right in front of your eyes.

An ordinary cocktail straw can bring a lot of joy while bathing in the bath. There is a lot of water, and you can splash and blow bubbles. The straw will need to be shortened to a length suitable for your child. The standard size may be too large and uncomfortable for the baby. This, by the way, is one of the most effective ways to accustom a timid child to water. In the process of learning to swim, the baby is allowed to blow bubbles in the water, and every day the straw is gradually shortened. Through the straw, you can simply blow on the water, creating the effect of waves. The more they get, the better.

Candles. Fire has a magical property to attract attention. Make candles an integral part of children's parties. This is a great opportunity to play with your child. Blowing out a candle is actually not such an easy task for a two-year-old child as it might seem to an adult. To do this, after all, you need to concentrate, take in more air, fold your lips with a tube, and even blow not just anywhere, but on the flame of a candle.

Praise your child for every attempt, because learning how to blow out a candle is not the most difficult thing. It is much more difficult for a child to blow on a flame so that it does not go out. To do this, the exhalation should be smooth and long.

Why a candle? Just her light will tell the child that he is doing everything right. And you can also blow on a candle, slowly moving away from it, thereby increasing the distance.

Be sure to observe safety precautions when handling fire. Do not leave a child alone with a burning candle.

Cotton wool or foam. Take a small piece of cotton or foam (it is also quite light), put it on the table and ask the baby to blow it off. This game is fun to play in a group. The task is to blow so that your piece moves as far as possible.

And with foam, you can start an even more interesting game: take a piece of foam, stick a toothpick into it, make a sail out of paper. Now it remains to draw water into the sink, basin or bath and start the sea regatta.

In general, you need to blow on everything that comes to hand - this is how much your imagination is enough.

Who is longer

◈ This game has very simple rules. For example, who will stretch the sound "a", "y" or any other vowel longer.

◈ You can also draw some consonant sounds. All children love to play this game with their parents. All that was left was to get some air.

Repeat after me

Forms the skills of correct pronunciation, breaks the articulatory apparatus

◈ Read short rhymes to your child and ask them to repeat the last syllable after you:

The kids came running - ra-ra-ra, ra-ra-ra.

The process of development of children's speech should be paid attention from the very first days of life. At first, just communication will be enough, and over time, you can add games, reading, listening to children's songs. What games can be played with babies to develop their speech? More on that below.

At first, you can expand the baby's passive vocabulary by using words in games that are the names of phenomena, objects, actions familiar to the baby in everyday life.

Album with family photos

Toddlers look at photographs with great pleasure, where they themselves or people they know are depicted. You can play by looking at the photo album together and asking the crumbs thematic questions - first with nouns, and then with verbs.

It can be questions for children of the following plan: “Where is mom?”, “Where is grandmother?”, “Where is dad?” etc.

On the basis of verbs, you can build questions and requests like: “Find a photo of where you eat”, “Show a photo of where you ride on a swing”, “Show me where you swim”, etc.

If the crumbs have difficulty choosing the right photos, then you can first show them to him, and after a while repeat the task to consolidate.

Game with the designation of body parts

To help kids learn and remember the names of body parts, you can play this game with them. Together with the baby, learn a short rhyme, during which it will be possible to show the body parts mentioned in it, on yourself, on a child or toys.

Good fit
to study parts of the body doctor game. The baby can be shown toys, dolls that will “cry”, complaining of pain and asking for help. In the process, it will be possible to pronounce phrases like: “The doll hurts!”, “Masha’s leg hurts”, “Misha’s arm broke!” and so on. Hearing these phrases, the baby will have to try to "treat" the toy in the named place.

A great version of the game to stimulate the development of speech is a quiz. Its principle is quite simple. The kid is asked questions and offered to answer them, and as a result he receives a prize. The questions are simple, for example, “What do you eat?”, “What do you walk with?” etc.

Can be done with
child drawing "life size". The baby will have to lie on his back on a large drawing paper (can be replaced with wallpaper), he is circled with chalk or a felt-tip pen, after which they draw the nose, eyes, knees, nails, etc. together. It is important that the child draw those parts of the body whose names are mentioned, or call them himself.

Fun with a mirror

Using a mirror, you can also stimulate the development of children's speech. You will need
stand together in front of the mirror, and then ask the child to show in the mirror, first, individual parts of his body, and then elements of clothing.

When the baby copes with the task, he can be offered to perform a series of actions in front of the mirror, for example, jump, spin, squat. You can also ask the baby to portray different facial expressions and emotions in front of the mirror.

"Who's coming to visit?"

Tell your baby that a toy will come to visit you soon, for example, one that is worn on the hand. Put the toy on your hand and talk on her behalf with the baby. Let her say hello to the baby, ask how he is doing, and ask him to show her the house. It is necessary to ask questions that will require the baby, if not an answer, then certain actions. Questions
may be of the following plan: “Where is your kitchen?”, “Show me what you eat?”, “What does mom clean the apartment with?” and so on.

Over time, the game can be made more difficult by asking the names of certain objects and thus stimulating the speech development of children.

Hide and seek and riddles

The kids enjoy playing hide-and-seek and guessing riddles. You can play on this interest and practice with tasks for the development of speech. To do this, you will need bright pictures or a variety of objects. The essence of the game is to make riddles for the baby, the answers to which he will look for.
in pictures or among objects.

Riddles can be in several versions. For example, it can be a riddle about an action like “sleep on this” or “it is used when eating”, or description riddles that will describe the characteristics and external features of objects.

You can also play hide and seek with the kids. For example, together with the baby, you can look for hidden toys, calling them by name. You can complicate the task for children by inviting them to look for toys without help, by gestures and looks.

Speech-developing games: "Journey", "Orchestra" and "Farm"

It is possible and necessary to develop a child’s speech at an early age by imitating the speech of adults, offering him to finish rhymes, nursery rhymes, and sing songs.

Great option
for children - a game of travel. Developing the script, tell the baby that you are leaving with toys on a trip, where you must fly by plane (imitate the sound of engines), ride the train (again imitate the sound of wheels), ride a horse, then a car and a boat. Don't forget to show the sounds of each of the vehicles, telling how much fun it is for you to travel with toys on them.

When the journey is over, you can tell the baby that the toys brought gifts from the trip, which he must correctly distribute among other toys. By asking leading questions like “What to give Bunny?”, “How to please Mishka”, it will be possible to encourage the baby to answer.

Orchestra game
provides for the use of children's musical instruments, which will be played by toys. The kid will be asked to play the pipe, for example, and then imitate its sound without an instrument, after which he will do the same for each of the toys.

And, finally, the game "Farm" involves the construction of a structure from a cardboard box or constructor. The scenario of the game should be based on the fairy tale "Teremok". In turn, different animals will come to the house, which the baby will have to name.

Game "Who came?"

This version of the game will also help speed up the development of children's speech. In some ways, the game is similar to the one mentioned above. For her, you will need toys that will have to "come to visit" the baby.
The essence of the game will be to ensure that he pronounces the names of those toys that came to visit him, greet them, and then say goodbye and offer to come again.

In conclusion, we note that the development of speech in children is accompanied by the active use of gestures and facial expressions. Meanwhile, it is very important not to allow the baby to stop at this stage. Use deliberate misunderstanding of the requests of the crumbs in cases where he tries to replace the words he has mastered out of habit with gestures, and, of course, play with the child, because in the game speech development occurs naturally and intensively.

Experts believe that at 2 years old, a child's vocabulary should contain at least 50 words. But what should parents do if a two-year-old baby does not speak? Much depends on the efforts of adults, namely: the early development of speech in a baby and the content orientation of the speech development of the crumbs, his ability to actively perceive words. Of course, each child is individual and begins to talk at the appointed time, but you can still help develop this skill with the help of special exercises and educational games.

How to talk a child: effective methods for the development of speech in children 2-3 years old

The most common method of developing a baby's speech that parents use is a technique called "tell mom." Yes, indeed, such a method is beneficial, but it is far from the only one. This technique is suitable for very young children who have just begun to pronounce the first sounds. But, if this method encourages the baby to simply imitate and unconsciously repeat after the parents, then the following techniques will help the child pronounce words meaningfully and understand what is being said.

Let's explore things together

Wanting to develop speech skills in a child, try to expressively describe everything that he does. At the age of one year, children begin to actively explore the world around them. They touch objects, open and close doors, touch everything with handles.

Make it a rule to describe his actions. For example, when opening and closing doors, say: "Open the door, close it." If the child picked up any object, describe it. For example, if a child took a spoon, you can say: “Look, you have a spoon in your hands. It's a spoon." Encourage any activity of the crumbs and focus on what he is doing.

Introduction to pictures

There are a lot of educational books with colorful pictures that can help your baby get to know the world. Buy your child books for the little ones, for example, from the section on animals called "Who am I?". Showing a drawing with a cat in a book or on a card, you can say: “How does a cat do? - Meow. Through these activities, you can introduce the baby to animals and help pronounce certain sounds. This method is ideal for the baby, as he already understands that this or that sound belongs to each animal. Try to study animals that you can see on the street. The kid, seeing a dog or a cat, will already begin to say “woof” or “meow”.

Education through sound

Whatever the child does, try to indicate his actions with a certain sound. For example, if he claps, say "clap-clap", even if he fell, do not immediately run to pick up the baby and at the same time gasp and groan, but rather say "boom, boom." This approach even amuses children and they quickly forget that they just flopped. This method will help the baby realize that each movement has a certain sound, he will actively develop memory.

Voice accompaniment

When the baby makes any sounds, ask him to repeat. For example, tell your child, “How do geese do? “Ha-ha-ha.” If he says something, in your opinion, awkward like “aha, booboo,” repeat after him. The child must be encouraged to speak, pronounce any sound and encourage him to do so.

Speech development classes for children 2-3 years old: exercises for the development of phonemic hearing

Phonemic hearing is a fine systematized hearing that allows you to distinguish and recognize the phonemes of your native language. This is an innate ability that allows you to distinguish among themselves words consisting of the same phonemes. For example, "boar-bank, nose-sleep", etc. There are many interesting and entertaining games that will help develop phonemic hearing in a child. Let's consider a few of these.

Exercises and games for the development of phonemic hearing in children 2-3 years old

The essence of this game is as follows: put the child with his back to the players. It is desirable that as many people as possible participate, but at least 3 people. The host asks one of the family members to say the name of the child, and he, in turn, must guess who called him.

Play with sounds

If there are various instruments at home, for example, a piano, a tambourine, an accordion or others, invite the baby to guess which instrument you play. Accordingly, the baby should not see what subject you have chosen, it is necessary that he determine by ear which instrument sounded.

Who is speaking?

Invite the child to pronounce the sounds characteristic of different animals. Be sure to prepare pictures of animals with their kids. For example, ask them to show how a mother cat “speaks” loudly and loudly, and how a kitten speaks quietly and thinly. Then a dog and a puppy, a cow and a calf, and so on.

Repeat after me

This game is played according to the following principle: mom or dad taps out some elementary rhythm, and the baby must repeat. Then the sounds become more complex. When the child masters the game, invite him to create sounds, and you will repeat. Both fun and useful.

These games will not immediately give a positive result. The child in the process of games will develop memory and thinking, which will serve as an excellent basis for the development of phonemic hearing.

Finger games for the development of speech in children 2-3 years old

Finger games are wonderful and easy hands that contribute to the development of speech in children. Devote finger games for 10-15 minutes a day, but no more. Also, do not try to learn all the games at once, 2-3 games will be enough to start, after you can change the games to new ones.

How can finger games help a child speak? Very simple. The essence of the games is that the parent tells poems in the course of classes, where the same words are often repeated. Thus, the child perceives the words of the mother by ear and understands what is at stake. And then he tries to repeat the sounds.

You can start to engage with a child with the most elementary finger games such as "magpie-white-sided" or "there is a horned goat." Offer the baby another such game: take the baby’s pen, and, bending his fingers, pronounce the names of relatives. For example, this finger is dad, this finger is mom, etc.

Fingers up game

Bend the baby's fingers, and then with your thumb "wake up" everyone else. With an exclamation of "Hurrah!" open the cam completely, as if all the fingers woke up.

Children learn the world through touch. You can arrange a whole finger theater, knit or sew interesting animals for a more interesting and colorful game.

Articulation gymnastics for the development of speech in young children

By developing your baby’s speech from an early age, you will help your baby express his thoughts and desires faster through words. The main goal of articulatory gymnastics is to give the child a certain skill for the competent pronunciation of sounds. By training the speech apparatus, you help your child learn words correctly.

Do the exercises regularly, because any skill needs to be consolidated gradually.
Do not offer your baby more than 2-3 exercises at once.
Each session should be 5-10 minutes long.
Be sure to reinforce the completed exercises several times.
Carry out gymnastics in a playful way, as the baby will not be interested in performing static, monotonous movements.

At the age of 2, children do not have a pronounced speech problem, but for the sake of prevention, simple entertaining exercises should be performed.

Articulation gymnastics:

"Opening and closing gates" . Invite your child to open their mouth and hold this position for a few seconds.
"Show me the fence." When you offer the crumbs to show the "fence", he should close his teeth and smile broadly.
"Brush-brush your teeth" . Together with the baby, open your mouth wide and run your tongue along the inside and outside of the teeth.
"Artist". This exercise is more difficult. Offer the baby with a tongue how to draw any elements in the sky. And then, like a painter, you can completely paint over the entire sky.

Be sure to practice together. These exercises develop the mobility of the organs of the speech apparatus. Articulatory gymnastics is the key to beautiful and correct sound pronunciation in children at an early age.

Advice from specialists on the development of speech in children under 3 years old

Parents often panic when their child does not want to start talking. Regarding difficult speech, an authoritative pediatrician E. O. Komarovsky says the following:

“Difficulty in speech can be caused by the fact that adults do not actively communicate with the child. But when the kid goes to kindergarten, he will catch up, as children quickly try to adapt to society, purely instinctively. But there is a high probability that he will have problems with pronunciation, so it is better to deal with the child from an early age.

R. Levykin, psychologist:

For the development of speech is useful:

Talk to your child as much as possible and encourage him to speak as much as possible. Ask him questions. Ask for his opinion. Comment on your actions.
Develop horizons. Walk more: gardens, playgrounds, parks, museums, zoos, walks in the forest, etc.
Develop motor skills of hands: plasticine, paints, crafts from natural materials, designers.

From the book by I. A. Ermakova “Talk to me, mom! Educational activities for kids» :

Speech therapy massage of the facial muscles helps with the correct development of speech. A light massage of the cheeks, forehead, lips helps to regulate blood circulation, improves muscle elasticity and is an effective way to prevent speech disorders. Light circular movements should be performed with the fingertips of both hands so that wrinkles do not form on the skin. Massage should be done slowly and smoothly for 2-5 minutes 2 times a day. Course duration - 10-15 sessions. Before starting the massage, you need to cut your long nails, wash and warm your hands thoroughly, lubricate your fingertips with nourishing or baby cream.

Perform light circular movements from the middle of the forehead to the temples.
Perform light circular movements from the middle of the forehead to the earlobes.
Perform light circular strokes under the eyes from the nose to the temples.
Perform light circular movements from the middle of the forehead to the neck.
Perform light circular movements from the wings of the nose to the corners of the lips.
Perform light circular movements from the wings of the nose to the lobes of the ears.
Perform light circular movements along the contour, first of the upper and then of the lower lip - from the corners to the middle.
Perform light tapping on the lips with your fingertips.
Perform light circular movements from the middle of the upper lip to the chin.

Yu.S. Kosmina, speech therapist of the highest category:

In a family, a child needs to create such conditions so that he feels satisfaction from communicating with adults, receives from them not only new knowledge, but also enriches his vocabulary, learns to build sentences correctly, pronounce sounds clearly, and tell interesting stories.

By expanding the circle of the child's ideas about the surrounding objects and phenomena, talking with him on various everyday topics that are close and accessible to the understanding of the baby, parents will thereby not only expand his horizons, but also contribute to mastering the correct speech.

Speech therapist-defectologist Anna Makovei about methods for developing speech in twins:

Twins are a different matter. They have each other and that says it all. A special language, complete mutual understanding and lack of incentive to master the common language. The most humane of all the tried-and-tested means (here is the separation / delivery to grandmothers and the division of responsibilities for raising everyone between dad and mom) seems to me to be the introduction of children into a group of peers. There, kids realize the need to master speech and learn to voice their needs (which is vital in kindergarten).

Individual communication with parents also helps to "talk" these children. Here is your imagination and resourcefulness. One with dad goes to the store for ... (something very necessary !!! You can’t do it alone!), The second stays with mom .... boil a kettle, wash dishes, etc.

Do not worry if the child did not start talking at the age of 1.5-2.5 years. It is worth fearing if a child at the age of 3 does not want to utter a single sound. This is an occasion to contact a specialist who will help find the answer to the question of whether.

Teach your children, develop their speech, thinking, memory, because a lot depends on the parents. And with such a set of modern techniques, books, educational games, you can decorate the everyday life of not only the baby, but also your own.
