It is educational background, not a developmental diagnosis, therapy plan, parenting rulebook, or substitute for a licensed speech-language pathologist, early intervention team, physician, audiologist, psychologist, occupational therapist, or other qualified professional.</p> <p>Play is often where early language becomes visible. A child reaches, protests, laughs, imitates, hides, pretends, watches, takes a turn, brings an object, points, vocalizes, signs, or says a word because something in the play matters. The adult does not have to manufacture communication from nothing. The work is to notice what the child is already trying to do and make the moment a little easier to share.</p>
