I have a 6 year old with downs as well. Her speech is behind where it should be, so we've been told. Her brother who is 3, and autistic, has been actually teaching her a lot of new things since he started talking. Also it probably didn't help that she has been in and out of hospitals for her heart problem since birth. We are told that has impaired her speech as well.
