Hi srumpee
No, it's not bcos she is better but it's bcos he has seen results fr kids going to her, so it's jus so happened that she has many kids with speech delay going to her. But although she is not a speech therapist but I think the things they do r same or similar.
I heard of mindchamp but it's too exp (my friend said >$1k) but it's a normal school right? Apart fr the therapy he going, I intend to put him in special school as well as a normal preschool. So I'm hoping to find one that can ve 2-3x per wk instead of 5x, so that he can attend to both schools n not 2 school on the same day, he still take afternoon naps.
N actually my son only started saying words at 2+. He started calling mummy n daddy at 2 or 2+. I remember at 2yrs 3mths old, he call blue as "Ng" n Thomas as "tas" whilst his younger cousin during that time (2yrs old) can call Thomas as "tall-tall" which is 2 syllabus instead of 1, the therapist say for normal kids their brain automatically can digest that Thomas is a 2 syllabus word so they can learn to talk faster but for my son, he doesn't, that's y it's harder. B4 2 yrs old no words at all. But i think flashcards so help with vocabulary n talking. Initially he doesn't say anything when he watch, but after many many many times, he is now able to repeat what the flashcard video, game or when we play Hardcopy ones. So now he know words but still no sentences. Only lately this 2mths, he started with abit of phases like "make milk pls" but still no "I'm hungry" no "I want to eat", not even 1 word like "eat" "hungry" "yes" "no" although he know what they mean. I know he can pronounce them but he Is not using them.
He started pointing only this 3mths but not for things He want but rather on pictures. b4 He doesn't point at all, He will take my hand n bring to whatever he want to reach, he now still won't point at things. He doesn't ask qns n doesn't answer qns, not even yes or no answers. But if u ask him "what is this?" he can answer car, apple etc but single words. But dunno how to express verbally his feelings, jus throw tantrum n cry n sometimes scratch ppl face.
I'm thinking of putting him in St Gerard or kits4kids at telok kurau bcos they r nearest to my place n I will ve to look for a normal preschool with flexible timing as well. Gug Is too advance for him I think. Any feedbacks for these 2 special school? They 3x per wk fees r quite close. But I find kits4kids quite run down, it doesn't feel like a school but seem like many ppl in this thread send their kids to them, I wonder how r they now?
