Children's language development (0-5 years old)

0 to 5 years old is the critical period of children's language development, which means most of the foundational language skills are acquired in this period of time for children to be able to converse with others and learn new knowledge/skills through language.

This list is a quick screening checklist I compiled with referring to American Speech and Hearing Association (www.asha.org) Hope this information helps you to understand more about children's language development and monitor your child's language development.
