Today our childminder told my husband that my 3 year old is too quiet and she's concerned if everything is okay with him development wise. I've had no reason to worry before and have been quiet happy with his progress. At home, my boy is very chatty and we chat together about things all day. He tell me which fruits, toys etc he likes most. He tell me why he's laughing in a sentence (e.g. when he saw boy outside trip over). He actually asks using simple sentences me to go and buy things for him from the local shop which I thought is pretty advanced for his age.
When we go out for a walk to the park etc, he very happy, runs around and is always the first one to say hello to other kids of his age. Sometimes he's so friendly that other parents actually notice. Having said that because of covid and not having any siblings, he has no regular friend of his age at home and so probably doesn't get a chance to have a long conversation with other kids (like the way he chats with me for hours at home).
I was quite happy with his development until the childminder today said she's worried about him. My son has told me a few time he doesn't like at the childminders so I'm wondering if something to do with the childminder rather than my son? Any advice please on what is normal for a 3 year old boy?
