The Use of a Language Toolkit for Toddlers

Completed · Not applicable

In brief

To investigate whether young children with isolated expressive language delay benefit from early intervention with a simple language toolkit and brief instructions provided to their caregivers. We hypothesize that children whose families are provided the language toolkit will develop more words over the subsequent 3 months.
