Cognitive skills

It is very important for you to speak with your baby it builds vocabulary, knowledge, it allows your infant/toddler to begin to understand language and how to use it. When we first introduced the word hungry to Ajani he would say it when he is finish eating. We explained that ,you are now full but you was hungry before. This took a few weeks for him to associate the word hungry with the feeling . He has gotten it now by us asking " Ajani  do you want to eat ? if he says yes ,we will add wow you are hungry. He is now  understanding the word hungry. He rubs his belly and says "I hungry". Yes you are hungry. We help him to extend his language. Understanding how language works is very important for brain development . This is preparation for reading.
Keep talking with your babies!!!!!!!!
