Babbling that stops after a brief period may be a sign of a hearing disorder. Frequent ear infections can affect hearing and delay speech. Have a hearing test performed on your infant or child. Encourage speech development by talking and reading to your child. Talk all the time, sing songs to your baby and keep the vocabulary and sentence length at your child's level.
Reading helps to improve vocabulary, sequencing, and attention span.
