At what age should a child start pronouncing the letter "r": until then, you can rest easy
The process of speech development in a child depends on many factors, including physical activity, developmental activities, parental speech, motor games, etc.
But there are also common patterns for everyone: for example, the foundations for the formation of sounds are laid at one and a half to two years.
If you are specifically interested in the letter "r", then its correct pronunciation is evident in children aged four to six years.
When to see a speech therapist
If a child still cannot pronounce the "r" sound by the time he or she reaches five years of age, regular lessons should be considered.
Observe the progress over 1.5-2 months: if there is still no change, you should consult a specialist.
Sound development with a speech therapist takes about six months.
However, training with a specialist is not enough: be prepared for the fact that in order to achieve the desired result, you will need to exercise at home.
