How can I encourage my child to start talking? 

By Team Rainbow - Updated: November 05, 2026

Read Aloud: Make reading a daily routine. Choose board books with colorful pictures and simple words. Encourage your child to turn the pages and point to objects in the book. Sing and Rhyme: Sing nursery rhymes and simple songs. Songs with repetitive sounds and actions, like "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or "Pat-a-Cake," can be engaging for a one-year-old.
