My 3yo dd is having trouble explaining events that happen throughout her day as well as getting her ideas across. She even has a hard time telling me what she hears when a story is read aloud to her. When she does try to explain herself, she will start talking then start the same sentence over again. She will do this sometimes 10-15 times in a row until she either gets the whole sentence out or she will just give up and say "I don't know".
When we had her tested, her non-verbal scores were extremely high but there is was a significant gap between that and the listening comprehension scores. Would that have something to do with the her issue of not being able to explain herself. It almost seems like her brain is thinking faster than she can talk.
Is this typical with gifted children? Any suggestions on how I can help her with this. Thanks in advance!
