Parent Gathering at SMART Library: Addressing the Issue of Silent Children
The SMART library in Yakutsk is hosting a parent meeting titled "My Child Isn't Talking. What Should I Do?" on August 26th. This informative gathering, scheduled for 16:00 at 12a Larinova Street, left wing, aims to offer guidance to parents whose children may be experiencing speech delays.
Speech therapists Lyubov Efimova and Oxana Bishaeva will lead the event, providing valuable insights into the main causes of delayed speech development. They will discuss possible reasons for a child's silence, including physiological issues, social factors, and individual development pace.
Parents will learn about the expected sounds, words, and phrases at different ages (1-3 years) and "red flags" or possible problem indicators. Advice will be given on proper communication with children and creating a language-rich environment. They will also receive guidance on avoiding baby talk and simplified speech.
The event will feature practical developmental activities, speech-stimulating exercises, and lectures. Additionally, parents will be informed about developing fine motor skills and their connection to speech.
One of the key topics to be covered is how to recognize signs of speech delay. Parents will gain knowledge on techniques to encourage speaking at home and when to seek professional help. They will also receive guidance on when to consult a speech therapist and a neurologist.
Registration is required for the meeting, and admission is free with a library card. The event is open to children aged 2 to 6 and their parents. This meeting is part of the "Biblionanny" project, a series of events designed to support families and children in the community.
If you have concerns about your child's speech development, this meeting is an excellent opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical advice from experienced professionals. Don't miss out on this informative event at the SMART library in Yakutsk.
