Hi... My cutiee is 22 months old and she goes to playschool... my problem is she is not able to play with other kids there and she does not want to mingle with anybody... She speaks very well combining 4 to 5 words and forms sentences... at home she will be speaking 24 x 7 but when she enters playschool she does not open her mouth and starts crying... and wanted to know that what kind of activities and games should I introduce to her at this age...

She sounds shy and probably just has to have time to learn how to interact with other children. Why don't you invite some children over to your house so she can play with them. This might give her the confidence she needs for social interaction with other siblings.

Yeah, my friend works in play school and she tells me there are quite a few kids that hardly talk. She says they don't want to make kids uncomfortable so they can't forse them to join in but encourages them to talk to others by playing games and creative thing. You shouldn't be worried, she's only 22 months, when she gets to school she'll find friends and come out of her shell more.
Hope this helps

So does she stop crying after you leave ?
After you leave what does she do about playing with others
