Hi all, I think my little one is on track but I am just interested to see where your nearly 2 year olds are with this.
My son has lots of single words, will join up some words, answers some questions such as do you want xxxxx with a yes/no reply, seems to understand 'what's that?, where's xxxxx, who's that? questions.
I'm just a bit stuck about what they should know with regards to answering more open questions and any kind of conversation such as telling you about their day or what they've been doing. My son might expand on something if I say did you go to the park?, he may say slide, wheee, granddad for example or he may not say anything at all. Also, I wonder about questions like 'how are you?' - people ask him this and he doesn't answer yet and 'what's your name?' he usually points to me and says muma and then i say no what's your name and point to him and then he will say his name.
I'm just not sure what age to expect more 'conversation' and I suppose more open answers to questions if that makes sense!
Thanks all.
