Many studies have found that the more you talk to your baby, the faster they will develop vocabulary and even have a noticeably higher IQ. Studies have also found that lower income parents talk to their children less than rich parents. Now government backed initiatives are teaching new parents to understand the importance of speaking to their children at an early age and how to bolster verbal development. An example is when your child says “car”, you say “big car” or what color the car is. Your child will mimic you, and learn new words faster.
