Why You Should Watch

When your baby’s cooing and goo-gooing becomes babble it’s time to retire the baby talk. Get your child’s perspective on what they understand vs. what they can say – there’s a big difference! Understand how an environment that's rich in the spoken word will have a huge positive effect on your baby's language development, and find out why consistency is key for stimulating your tot's language development.

What you'll see from a baby's eye view:

  • Why your baby's fooling around with the sounds they're making
  • How your baby's understanding outpaces their ability to talk
  • Why baby talk has become passé

What you'll discover:

  • Why it helps to be consistent when naming people in your baby's life
  • Why most baby's say "dada" first (hint: it's not personal moms)
  • How each baby moves from milestone to milestone at their own unique pace

Language is fascinating for adults; imagine how it must feel for a baby to learn and discover its power. Thanks to Just Ask Baby you don't have to imagine, you'll get the inside scoop from the experts – babies themselves!
