Dorothy And Theodore Promotes New Research Being Undertaken Into Decoding Baby Talk

Online, February 4, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Female First, a website for women and mothers, recently reported a new project which will be undertaking crucial research into the study of baby communication development, particularly how fast or slow babies are learning to communicate with adults. Other research undertaken into this area has been useless when used in the UK, as the research was developed with American English speaking children, who obviously adopt different words and have varying accents, none of which are similar to those found in England.

The research project will take two to two and a half years to complete, but will yield incomparable results for UK children. Currently scientists are encouraging parents from areas around the UK, including Scotland and Ireland, with babies under eighteen months to join the project and have their children participate. The advantage of studying children with dialects from around the UK will be a better national average with which to compare a baby's communication abilities, one which takes into account the area of the UK they're from.

Dorothy and Theodore, an online baby boutique, has been promoting the research with customers. A Customer Service Representative commented, "this research will change the way babies are seen by psychologists around the country. Currently they all use a speech progression measure developed in the US, which has led to many babies being misdiagnosed as language delayed, and has causes unnecessary stress for parents everywhere."

The research project will soon be underway, and the benefits for parents couldn't be any better. Soon there will be an accurate measure for the development of speech in children aged eight to eighteen months which is designed to be specifically for UK babies.

Dorothy and Theodore is a trendy online baby boutique based in the UK. They offer a wide range of handmade goods from sellers based all around the UK, bringing them together under one website for parents to buy for themselves, their children and their homes.
