Happy Milestone Monday! 6-12 months is such a fun stage for communication growth π
During this time, your baby might start to:
β¨ Understand "hi" and "bye"
β¨ Respond to their name
β¨ Understand names of their body parts
β¨ Use gestures such as pointing, waving, and giving
β¨ Babble in a way that imitates real speech
β¨ Use 1-2 words consistently
β¨ Look where you are pointing
β¨ Recognize familiar people
These early social and sound skills are the building blocks for later speech and language development π§ π¬
Save this for later & share with a new parent π€
