My 2 year old speaks strangely

He will mimic me saying (eg) "Big car"

and he will say "Big G G G car!"

or he says things like "C C C C cat!"

It's much slower than a stutter - does anyone kno why he does this? He's 2.3.

I've heard children of this age do this. I don't think it's usually anything to worry about, at this age.

I started a thread about this, see here

FWIW, he only does it occasionally now, and many days not at all. HTH.

My DS2 did this, and at the time I was worried about it but he seemed to grow out of it. In fact, I'd forgotten about it until I read this thread . He's 4.5 now and talks fine.
