Infants who can blow bubbles and lick their lips are more likely to pick up language quickly, research suggests.
A Lancaster University study of 120 toddlers found the ability to perform complex mouth movements was strongly linked with language development.
They also found children who were good at ‘pretending’ an object was something else had better language skills.
The findings could help experts identify children who may struggle with language skills at an early stage.
