If you have a preschooler, you may notice that they start to imitate the way you talk. Children this age are beginning to role play and use names as well. They also often mimic the voices of people or characters they see, like their parents. They may match their mother’s higher-pitched voice, or lower their tone to match their father’s. Preschoolers will often start repeating the words their parents say, such as “shhh, quiet, don’t be too loud.”
Around this age, your preschool will also start communicating with other kids, especially when playing. Children, ages 3-5, will learn how to negotiate when exchanging toys or taking turns in play areas.
For example, children aged 5 years old can say “You can play with my toy if you let me use your toy” or “I’m done using the slide, it’s your turn now.”
