Difficult Sounds: A Communication Game
Purpose: to encourage your baby to imitate sounds and words. Repeat the sounds your baby makes so she can hear them twice. As you say these sounds back to your baby, you are helping her learn how to make the sounds she has “invented.” Help your baby learn new sounds by playing this game. Hold your baby in your arms and let her relax. Make sounds like “brr-own,” “grrr-ate,” “bizzz-y,” “uh-oh,” and “aaa-all gone.”
Face her so she can watch your lips move. Nuzzle or cuddle her after you make the sounds. Laugh, smile, or hug her gently when she makes the sounds. If your baby still wants to play, try new words and sounds. Face your baby so she can see you say other words and sounds.
