Let’s talk about BABY’S FIRST WORDS!

Hearing baby’s first words is such an exciting time! When babies are first learning a language, they won’t say most words perfectly and that is both ok and expected! ⁣
 
Just make sure the word is said:
✔️CONSISTENTLY (your tiny human says the word often)⁣
✔️INTENTIONALLY (they are saying that word for a specific intent or meaning)⁣
✔️INDEPENDENTLY (your child says the word spontaneously, without help)⁣


Little ones often will use part of the word (like “uh” for “up”) or approximations (“baba” for “bottle”). These all count towards your tiny human's first words! ALSO, sound effects, animal sounds, or exclamations are considered words if your little one uses them consistently to mean the same thing! For example, if your baby says, “uh-oh” every time something falls out of sight, then we would consider “uh-oh” part of your child’s vocabulary.  As well as “moo” to identify a cow, or saying “choo choo” when they see a train. All of these are included in your child’s word count!!!

Baby signs as well as words in other languages (if your little one is a dual language learner) ALL count as words in your tiny human’s vocabulary as well! 

What was your child’s first word?! Are you still expecting your little one’s first word?! What are you hoping it will be? We want to hear about it in the comments!!!

FEATURE FRIDAY

Allow us to introduce you to our amazing Occupational Therapist Kaitlin Pierce. Kaitlin moved to the beautiful mountains of Colorado all the way from the warmth of Florida. As a new graduate she was eager to find a full time job, on a supportive team, working with an invested supervisor, and that is exactly what she found at Peak Pediatric Rehabilitation in early 2017.

In her 4 years as an OT Kaitlin has grown substantially from the quiet, and shy therapist she once was. Kaitlin is compassionate, patient, and is amazing at providing child led therapy. She has taken many courses around DIR Floortime, Feeding, and working with children with Autism is where her passion lies. Families feel Kaitlin truly takes the time to get to know their children, she meets them where they are and readily builds on their strengths, making therapy fun and creative for her kids. Next time you're in the clinic make sure to give her belly a rub and congratulate her on their first little babe due in April!!

MILESTONE MONDAY

Tummy Time is an activity that can be started the day that is a baby is born. Over the first 6 months of life, there is a significant amount of changes in what tummy time looks like from learning to how to turn their head to clear their airway to playing with toys, looking around at their environment, and learning how to move on their belly. View the post above on how much tummy time changes over the first 6 months of life!

Have questions or concerns about tummy time for you child? Reach out to our physical therapist, Katelyn Penfold, PT, DPT for a FREE developmental screener and/or physical therapy evaluation!

Let’s talk about INTELLIGIBILITY.

Intelligibility is the ability to be understood—comprehensible and clear speech. Speech sounds typically develop slower than our child’s vocabulary (ie: my child knows how to identify a cat, but calls it a “tat”). Because of this order of development, as they begin to speak in phrases instead of individual words, it can seem at times increasingly difficult to clearly understand what your child is saying. Encouraging your child to slow down their rate of speech can always be helpful, especially for unfamiliar listeners.

Here a few helpful cues to use when your child is not being understood:
“Can you say that again?”
“I didn’t quite understand you.”
“Would you say that again for me?”
“Don’t forget to slow down so our friends can understand us better”
