Hello mommy!its very common for kids to have mild speech delay. Dont worry. He will pick up in another few months.. First of all, reduce screen time- mobile/ TV. Speak to him constantly and casually. Teach 1 to 2 simple words daily and keep repeating for some days until he gets it. Use picture charts / ABC charts etc. You can do this for some months and see. If still not talking, you can visit a developmental pediatrician.Hope this helps!

If your child is 2 years old and is still not willing to speak but able to communicate effectively ,don't panic. Talk to the child frquently ,read to him ,sing nursery rhymes to him. Some children ,esp boys don't speak till 3 .
