Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Joint play with objects is linked to earlier use of preverbal gestures, such as pointing or showing objects to others, which are important for communication development. It does not necessarily slow down vocabulary growth or delay the onset of first words. The option regarding caregivers speaking for infants is not directly related to joint play with objects.
