- Jean Piaget linked language development to cognitive growth, suggesting intentional communication starts between 8-20 months.
- Gestural communication is initially important for children and decreases as they learn verbal language, with narrative use emerging by age 3-4.

Sviluppo del linguaggio nei primi anni
During the first three years of a child's life occurs language development. The period from the first to the eighth month of life is called "prelinguistic" where the language is characterized by sounds, attempts languages and babbling.

Just at this age the child begins a rhyme distinction between means and ends, and communications through the eyes or the sounds into a means to achieve certain purposes (food, care, etc.). also communication becomes progressively more complex with increasing skills of the child. Key to the development of the communication is the social environment and relationships with others. The adult has the task of stimulating the baby.

As for the cognitive aspect language plays an essential role because through it you can store emotions, objects and events, by giving it a specific meaning. During the growth language it develops through the construction of a system of knowledge, which are facilitated and consolidated in the storage by reading and writing. In addition, through the argument the child gradually learns to externalize their point of view. Through language consolidate the cognitive structures. Bruner says in fact that language is an amplifier of thought and that 6-year-old children know on average about 14,000 words and grammar rules apply even unintentionally varied.
