Conversations, Vocabulary Knowledge, Appreciation and Knowledge of Books and Stories

With your baby's growing vocabulary, she will now be able to have simple Conversations with you. Ask her a question, and she'll respond with a one-word answer or a gesture. Repetition is important for her at this stage, so have patience when she asks for her favorite stories and songs over and over. She is trying to get those words stored in her memory bank!
