Why it helps

Serve-and-return: the core drill of language and social wiring.

How to do it

  1. Sing a short simple song with exaggerated expressions
  2. Pause — leave space for your baby to answer with coos
  3. Echo their sound back, then continue the song
Stop if you see

No stop signs — this one only ends when one of you is done smiling.
