Have a question for our Speech Therapists?
My two year son is not talking but he bubbles a lot. Should I be worried about his ability to talk?
Babbling is typically done as a precursor to formulating words. However, at two years of age, children are typically putting together short phrases, such as “all done” and “more please.” Their vocabulary should be around 5-20 words at 18 months and by 2, some children hit around 50 words, although 25-50 is more common. If your son is not saying any words at this age, I would recommend seeking out an evaluation but a speech-language pathologist to see if there is a delay present.
