Abstract :The acquisition of the mother tongue is one of the areas that may be problematic for children affected by disability. Problems in both receptive and expressive language development can be seen in children affected by various degrees of disability. It is seen that the natural language approach, which is based on the foundations of social interactionist theory, has been effective in teaching the mother tongue to children who have been affected by inadequacy. This study explains what needs to be done to develop the expressive language of children with mental disabilities who have limited expressive language skills. The study also includes activity suggestions to support children's language development.Keywords : Language, Language development, Expressive language, Children with disabilities
