Experimental parents were also instructed in how
to expand on their children's answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities, and how
to praise correct answers
At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ on measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group tested 5,5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group
