YOUR BABIES FIRST WORD

It’s an important moment——the first word that comes from your baby’s mouth. Before this word, babies constantly repeat sounds like "dada”or “bobo” as well as the sounds you make. These are the building blocks for first words which will come along around 12 months of age.
Your baby needs to be talked to in order to stimulate his/her own vocabulary - no matter how limited. Listening to nursery rhymes will delight your baby. Singing or simply talking will also hold their interest.
If you're concerned about your baby's speech development, the experts advise you to talk to your doctor and ask for a hearing test for your baby.
