LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT AT IT'S FINEST
This is a video of twin boys engaging in a conversation between each other. This video is a clear example of how children develop language. The toddlers are babbling sounds to each other and then responding. What is unusual at this age, is to see both toddlers engaging in "conversation" with each other. Typically, you will see toddlers having a one-sided conversation. Clearly though, these little boys are responding back and forth by pointing, stomping, laughing and babbling. It's adorable and pretty amazing!

Donna,
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this was amazing! They were conversing in a "secret" language that mysteriously we have all spoken before. There was a movie that I can't remember the name of right now, but in it babies were talking to each other and were saying their language becomes obsolete when they begin talking to adults. It was as if they crossed over to the other side and totally forgot the baby language with their friends. I wonder if there is any truth to that??
