Toddler Speech

For a 3 year old what should their speech look like? My toddler says 800 words and can put 3-4 words together in a sentence. Should I be worried?

Why would you be worried with that? That sounds amazing. Every child is different. I don’t even know how you know they can say 800 words. No idea how many my son can say but probably not that many and he has a hard time pronouncing things. He also can put multiple words together but again it’s hard to understand since everything sounds similar

Sounds perfect

@Gabrielle Thats my son too! Some things he says super clear than other words are really hard to understand. He also only strings about 2-3 words still im not really worried though because every kids is different! He does sing happy birthday and a couple other songs lol🤣 id say my son says around 250 words maybe more but I havent really sat and counted.🤷🏽‍♀️

Yeah haha. He can say a couple words together. But almost every word isn’t pronounced correctly. We can understand because we are his parents obviously lol but a lot of other people wouldn’t unless they had context

@Gabrielle Yes! My husband and I know what he is saying but people outside of family have a hard time understanding! 🤣

Some kids are on a slower mission than others, but sounds like yours is still on the right track. I took my son to a speech therapist recently for an assessment and he was diagnosed with mixed language disorder. You can always get your kid assessed if it soothes the worries.
