3–6 MONTHS BABBLING

Promoting play

Imitate the sounds he makes and wait for his reaction.
Baby will look at your mouth, listen to your voice, then experiment with his own sounds.
Repeat the action over and over.
Play hide-and-seek with your child.
Laugh with him while he is in a joyful mood.
Describe to baby what you are doing, or how he feels, what he hears during his daily routine.

Providing tender
loving care

Choose these happy times to provide care such as giving him his bath, taking a stroll, telling him a story or listening to music with him.
