Oral Development Observation

From birth on, children become curious about everything they see, hear, touch, and smell in the environment. Communication is key in order for children to be able to learn and develop skills to be able to vocalize and express their feelings to their first teachers which are the parents/ caregivers. As early as six weeks, infants begin to make spontaneous cooing sounds which resemble vowel sounds (Otto, 2008). The sound production becomes more complex as the child grows until the final stage of oral development which is beginning oral fluency. Oral development is vital for children literacy which involves learning the sounds, word, and symbols of language.
