"This study is one of the first to closely examine the relation between physical activity and word-learning abilities in children as young as 3–6 years of age.

Results align with previous findings stating that aerobic exercise can boost vocabulary learning and suggest that this is the case regardless of existing language skills."

Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment—A Treatment for Childhood Apraxia of Speech and Other Pediatric Motor Speech Disorders

Purpose Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is a speech disorder that many generalist speech-language pathologists feel underqualified to treat. For children with CAS, this may result in ad hoc interventions resulting in slower progress. Research evidence for various CAS treatments is primarily limited to single-case experimental design studies; however, two treatments (Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment [ReST] and the Nuffield Dyspraxia Programme, Third Edition) have been compared in a single randomized controlled trial.

INFANT/BABY/TODDLER VOCALISATIONS

Posting the IASCL video collection reminded me that I have a small collection that I gathered in 2020. Here they are:

Videos of infants and children 0-5 with typical speech and language development. Note that 2-year-old Aliza CAN talk, but that in the video she is doing "pretend talking". She imitates "Good girl, Aliza" at the conclusion of the video.
