Experimental material comprised 200 preschoolers selected from both the districts Hisar (100) and Rohtak (100) during the age of 2 to 3½ years. Results regarding profile of children indicated that majority of children were third born, had two silbings, belonged to medium level of education, labour occupation, housewife mothers, large size of families and medium level of income and having low level home environment. No significant difference were observed in both the age groups on Reynell scale, but significant difference over Vineland scale and location and no significant difference observed in both age groups in intelligence testings. Regression and correlation coefficient showed that vocabulary and intelligence were positively related with each others. Reynell language scale and Bayley scales shows high relationship between language and intelligence. Among socio-economic factors family income in Hisar and educational and occupational status of parents in Rohtak were the most important factors in terms of their association with dependent variable. In home environment, language stimulation and variety in experience in Hisar, learning stimulation, physical stimulation and academic stimulation in Rohtak were significantly associated with vocabulary development.
