My son is 3.5 years old and has been a late talker. He now has a large vocabulary and says long sentences when he's at home but hardly speaks at preschool. But my biggest concern is that he doesn't really have any conversation skill. He doesn't chat to other children though he desperately wants to. He goes up to other kids and says hi and then just uses noises because he doesn't know what to say. He doesn't really ask questions. He's a very bright little boy and I'm sure he really wants to converse with people but its just not clicked with him yet. His eye contact with people is good. Do you think he needs additional help to get things going for him or does he just a bit of time? Any tips to help him would be must welcome!
