My DD is two next month and I've been sent a questionnaire to fill in.
It's asking me if she's "talking in short sentences" but I'm not sure what that means. She says things like "thank-you" and "bye-bye", "socks on" etc but to me it seems like she sees these as one word if that makes sense, rather than taking two different ideas and putting them together. Is this what they mean when they talk about putting words together? Sorry that's a really odd question but I'm really not sure. She says a lot of single words and does these long word association type things in a question and answer type format (as in, she says something, we repeat, she says the next thing). One I can think of is "water...drink...bath...bubbles". They're all words that go together. She can also say all her letters and their sounds, and can count from one to ten (but it is by rote, she doesn't seem to grasp the concept of counting).
I know there's lots of these sorts of threads, but does all that sound about normal for her age?
