Importance Of Communication In Children

Communication is the exchange of message or meaning. It uses all senses, although we often focus on language and speech because they convey the most complex meanings. Language is more formal than communication, as it has set of rules to express new ideas and to convey complex meanings. Speech is nothing but making sounds that become words- the physical act of talking. Language is the system we use to communicate in words. It includes using words and gestures to say what we mean, and understand what others say.
Communication and language consists of listening and attention, understanding, and speaking.
Learning starts for infants in the womb, when they hear and respond to familiar voices. A child learns quickly and fast at the age of 2 to 5 years. Children who are surrounded by speech and language all times are expected to learn language skills faster. Many conversations and reading with the child may affect how well the child communicates later. Children who are seldom spoken to or read to usually learn to talk later than other children of their age.
