Day 33 - Imitate Sounds to Promote Language
Today's Tip - Imitate the sounds and faces your baby makes to encourage learning
Even though you might feel silly making oohs and ahhs back to your infant when he talks, you're actually flattering him. By encouraging communication through imitation, you help your baby vocalize and practice at making the sounds he needs once he starts gibbering in words. He'll learn to enjoy going back and forth with you...no promises on whether or not it'll help when he's fifteen and won't tell you how his day at school went.
