@raisinglittletalkers: Stitch with abbieherbert ✨ One of the best things you can do for your baby’s language development doesn’t cost anything. Get face to face, talk to your baby, and give them time to respond. When babies can see your face during conversation, they’re learning so much — how mouths move to make sounds, how to read facial expressions, and how talking to someone actually works. That back-and-forth exchange, even when your baby’s side is just coos and squeals, is how early communication develops. New moms especially often wonder if they’re “doing enough” for their baby’s development. This is it. Talking to your baby, narrating your day, making eye contact, and pausing to let them respond — these simple interactions are building the foundation for language. Hi 👋 I’m Melissa, speech therapist and mom of 3. I train parents to get their toddlers talking at home.

Be warned, as a mom who talked a lot with her babies, be prepared that if you do this, they talk A LOT when they are older 😂

we made a decision that we were not gonna baby talk our baby, we did talk to her like this and now she's 11, all of her dibels are off the charts. she loves reading and doesnt stop telling us "imaginary things" and i love it. we have always gone to her level and tried to explain things the best way we could.

I am an early childhood educator. When I had my daughter I talked to her like this constantly. She’s 4 and at a recent assessment by a trained doctoral student she measured to have the vocabulary of a 13 year old.

When ny nephew was little I would talk to him like we were taking turns making up a story. He was so animated and giggly. Now he tells me stories he makes up

I did this with my kids and I have always used big words and explained what they mean. None of them can stop talking now! Totally fine but be warned they will use phrases like, ‘decision making paradigm’ in the right context in kindergarten!

I chatted to my babies so much that I developed a habit of talking to myself. VERY hard to break now that they all go to school and I can do my errands solo 😔
