Vocal Noises when playing wtih toys | ADHD Information

It's VERY normal and a sign of a good imagination

my son plays very seriously with his cars, making motor sounds, crashing sounds and making them talk to eachother

Do your kids do this?  My son goes on and on with gunshot noises, wooshes and etc when he's playing iwth his toys.

Do NT kids do this too?   It is annoying to listen to.

It sounds like he's just being imaginative. Go into a different room and put on some music.  You're lucky he's actively involved in play.Yes I think this is typical...my son did  it and I have a two year old who makes car noises when she plays with them.I have three sons and they all did this, ADHD or not. I think it's a boy thing.
My 8yr old make's those noises & always has done, but he is adhd, he will go the whole bus journey braking & changeing gear,
My 6 yr old only does it when playing & not all the time,
If you are worried talk to his health visitor or his doctor, they maybe able to suggest something.
    My son actually humms incescently.  He will become fixated on a rythm or a beat or a song he has heard and he will hum it constantly.  It causes problems at school although I don't truly understand how VERY quiet humming can be a problem in a classroom.  It worries me sometimes but I think it's just part of what makes him him. 

before Jeremy talked it was "Bydo, bydo, bydo, bydo" (by-dough) constantly.  Once he started learning his words, he'd concentrate on the newest word, and everything was that thing.  As he got older, he started having an imagination with all the noises attached to whatever he's playing.  Yes, it's annoying, but it's quite normal. 

By the way, I did the same thing, growing up.  Of course, it wasn't a disorder back then, but looking back, my own doctor agreed that I was ADD and didn't know it.  Go figure.

I do believe it's a boy thing also.  My son makes all types of noise when playing with toys.  I have a question for everyone.  My son sometimes talks to himself but then he also answers back also.  The things he say is usually what I would say to him if he did something or asked a question.  It's like he's playing the role of him and also me.  I was wondering if anyone else experienced that?  I became angry when the principal, the teacher and social worker brought that up in our ppt meeting.  I talk to myself, is that so unusual?i WISH i COULD HELP OUT DANIEL AVOIDED PLAY UNTIL HE GOT ECI HELP. BANGING POTS AND PANS WAS HIS THING TO DO.

My son made noises all the time, screamed when overstimulated, hummed when he was a baby.  He still makes the occasional wierd noise, at 16.  Its always worse when he's bored, and I don't think its conscious sometimes.  It does and used to drive me nuts though.

yup....  My son (who's 6) does all the play noises as well...  guns banging.. swooshes.. the works.  I figure it is child's play.  At least I hope so!!  Now he does sometime go a bit over board with it and I have to tell him that doing that all the time is not appropriate.  There's nothing like walking through the mall and yours son makes a gun with his hands/fingers and.... with AK40 shot sounds ...  he takes out a passer by.  (ok .. is there such a thing a AK40? hehe)  

Not sure about everybody else .. but my son is an habitual paper air plane maker!! I bet as we speak there are at least 20 in his room/on the floor!!!....with,  im sure, more to come.  Ever so often I make him throw some away .. but it does not take long before they are flying all over the house again.  He is actually quite good at making them.. different kinds and all.

ptgally39002.4270949074I think it's boy behavior...I heard a lecturer once relate studies about the vocalizations of boys and girls at a young age.  Boys were much higher in "noises" and girls higher in "word" content.  It was funny how he related it to teenagers too  and the type of communication...he described the boys still as being "noise oriented" and the girls more wordy.  Yes, it was an over generalization for adolescence, but it had the ninth graders in stitches as they realized some amount of truth to it.
My son is 4 years old and he hums all the time and makes motor sounds when he's play pretending to fix something.  Some lady at his playschool said he might be mildly autisitc but I think it a kid thing.My 6 year old does it all the time when he is playing by I have seen it in some other kids that are not adhd, it is normal in any kid to this humming
