- We recommend that your baby has things to hold,grab ,tug, pull
- Your baby should not be sucking a pacifier after 10 months
- Your baby should be giving small snacks that she can pick up and put in her mouth and begin chewing around 7 months (small solids)
- The baby should be introduced to a cup ,along with her bottle or sippy cup and a straw
- The baby should have access to writing tools they love to scribble starting at 16 months
- You also need to play children music because the words are clear and it allows the baby to sing along with the song
- You must speak with your baby in whole sentences example : it the baby is pointing to an object instead of just giving it to her - you would say do you want your blue cup ? You are giving your baby receptive language which is helping to develop the speech area of the brain.
- There are certain toys your baby should have that will help with these skills
