Baby’s Language Development, Nine to twelve months

Posted on October 21st, 2007 by security in Uncategorized

Nine to twelve months. It’s possible that by now your baby understands  requests and commands such as “give it” or “don’t touch that”. Similarly, she  may understand simple questions such as “where’s your rattle?” At this time  you should be encouraging your baby to use gestures (and you should respond  to them). For example if your baby indicates she wants to be picked up then  say “you want to be picked up?” while picking her up. This helps the learning  process. You should also talk about everything that you do, and use gestures  (and short sentences) as you’re doing them.
