DD3 says 'y' for 'l'. Do I ignore or interfere?

I tend towards the lackadaisical where child development is concerned but our DD (3.3) cannot say 'l'. It's endearing when she talks about her fyuffy byanket but I noticed today that her nursery worker was having trouble understanding her. She is just settling into nursery so it's important she can be understood.

Is this something she will just grow out of or should I be tackling it?

Thanks so much..
we had thought that once he is learning his letters at school that things would slot into place.

We will continue to play I Spy and keep it light hearted..

Thanks again!!

Yes, reading really helps with this stuff (although some people worry about sorting it before reading I have often found that the reverse is what usually works)
