The Baby Lab was great today. Here is the report.
1. CVC - Consonant Vowel Consonant in bus and pot for spot.
2. Using sh in syllables - we just started hearing sh last time.
3. Noticed a lot of nice answering no, yeah, a word instead of hmmm. Starting to build a conversation.
4. Ki (pig) gigi for chicken. Starting to hear more back of the mouth sounds.
5. Used an f in imitation of Farmer Fred (fwr- fred : fwawa - farmer. Making correct syllable numbers.
6. Words and word attempts are more frequent than babble. -- This was very interesting. They said kids start by babbling and incorporating a few words. Then they move to mostly words, incorporating a few babbles. Who knew?
7. While playing with the barn, Lily was attempting word combinations (not yet clear to us. Consonants dropping out in longer strings is natural)
8. Such nice expansions - She says hat and you give a model and immediately "stretch her taffy." So natural and fun to watch. -- Mary Pat calls expansion stretching or pulling the taffy.
9. Vocabulary continues to explode. Yeah!!
Great Day!
