speech and language skills, social-emotional skills, and age appropriate

play skills. The presenters will also provide important red flags that

indicate a possible delay or decline in developmental milestones which

may warrant intervention. Finally, tips and activities to enhance a

child's speech and language development will be shared and

discussed.
