Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that language acquisition in children is best supported through active engagement and interaction rather than passive exposure or restriction.
Recognize that limiting a child's exposure to new vocabulary can hinder their language development by reducing opportunities to learn and practice new words.
Note that allowing a child to watch television without interaction is a passive activity and does not provide the necessary social feedback or practice for effective language learning.
Identify that correcting every grammatical mistake can discourage a child from speaking freely and may negatively impact their confidence and willingness to communicate.
Conclude that engaging a child in frequent conversations and responding to their attempts to communicate provides meaningful social interaction, encourages practice, and supports natural language development.
