Summary/Abstract: Language and communication, as well as the skills that come before reading and writing, are part of a big and complex process that starts right from birth. Even so, official national curriculum documents and specialist books outline the essential components of language development in children and identify the main indicators with the necessary supporting practices associated with them, for clear age ranges. The document Fundamental milestones in early childhood learning and development from birth to age 7 organizes the support practices needed by children in the early stages of development, with a view to improving and practicing their language and communication skills. On the other hand, these necessary acquisitions for children by age group in the field of language development are transparent and accessible to both teachers and parents of kindergarten children, with a view to practicing support practices based on identified needs. Language development skills develop gradually and progressively from situational to contextual language in children with normal development and become indispensable for the harmonious development of children, in relation to their age level and interindividual particularities.
