Thanks Pam! Yes, actions are so important and so much fun to pair with simple words when turn-taking and learning to communicate. Describing actions outloud – as if narrating what the child is doing and what you are doing – comes naturally for some of us and for others, it takes time to develop the habit. I love that baby and Dad too! 🙂

Thank you for also adding ACTIONS to your recommendations, as we now know this is vital to all learning. Just looks at the movement this toddler generates during his interaction with Dad.
