As your little one approaches 14 months, get ready for some exciting developments! You might notice that her vocabulary is starting to blossom, and soon she will be chatting away. This age marks a significant leap in both speaking and understanding language. She may even surprise you by following simple commands like “Pick up your toys” or “Let’s go outside.” However, don’t be shocked if she shows a bit of stubbornness; independence is a hallmark of this stage!
