You can make a big difference when it comes to your child's language and vocabulary development!!! How? Actively engage your baby socially by fostering eye contact, facial expressions, and lots of conversation.
Respond to your babies sounds and cooing noises. Babbling is your baby's first attempt to speak. Verbal responses from you will not only encourage your baby but will help her develop attention, listening, and language recognition. Holding and talking to your baby is one of the most important things you can do to help encourage her cognitive and language skills. Use the opportunities of visual alertness in your baby to foster eye contact or "Face Time". Face time will help to establish communication with your baby that will enhance your bond and stimulate interaction.
Talk through all your routines such as feeding, changing, and bathing. Tell your baby what is going on, where she is going and label items in her environment. Repeated words form your will help build her comprehension as well as her expressive language. Reward your baby with animated expressions and conversation and in a short time you can be sure that she will reciprocate.
