My DS in nearly 3 and will be staring nursery in September. He is quite forward in most areas of development and although he has a huge vocabulary and better comprehension than most children his age he has a bit of trouble making himself understood as his pronunciation is not good and he really struggles with quite a lot of the initial sounds of words.
It always seems such a shame to me when people don't understand what he is saying because he has such a lot to say. Does anyone have any experience of speech therapy? What should I do? Is it too early? Will he grow out of it? Should we wait until September when he goes to nursery school? I just don't know what to do. My DH thinks I'm worrying about nothing so I'm feeling a little bit on my own with this one.
Any advice/thoughts welcome
