Isaac just turned two about a month ago, and still isn't saying any real words. But he understands very well what we're saying and knows the meaning of many words. I've been told to make him "work" for things by holding back until he asks for them verbally.
Since he enjoys sipping from my cup of sweetened tea at breakfast, I tried getting him to say "tea" before giving him any.
When he pointed to the tea and said, "Ack!", I told him, "Say, tea!"
He smiled at me.
"Say, tea, Isaac!"
He grinned even more widely, and then pointed at his teeth.
