No words required. I so enjoyed watching this tender interaction between grandmother and granddaughter. Baby is not yet using conventional language. But don’t think for a moment that she isn’t capable of communication. Throughout this video she clearly conveys multiple non-verbal messages. As grandma creates suspense in the build...

You don’t have to be rich or educated to raise a confident, curious, happy child; the love and attention this baby’s getting is the magic potion for all children’s success.

This is so awesome. Grab your baby and hold them close. Squeeze them tight and tell them that you love them.

It also looks like baby might be trying to imitate giving kisses.

God. I often do this with my daughter. She only can bubbling this time but sure can signal for more kisses!

Seeing this makes me remember my daughter who lost her speech with MS but could still communicate, just like this, as could the other non-verbal residents of the tiny, brilliant care home they lived in. Thank you xx

As a parent, lap reading is a joy. It’s a chance to cuddle your little one, while exposing them to rich vocabulary, concepts of print, and the wonder of books. When it comes to infants, however, lap reading can deprive babies of their favorite (and most important) sight: YOU. Which is why you might want to explore face-to-face reading as well. (With your baby facing toward you and the book simultaneously.) Developmentally, there are multiple benefits to allowing your baby to see you as you read together. Your little one is an expert at “reading” your face. This posture allows your baby to track your eyes to discover what you’re tuning in to. It also allows them to watch your mouth and learn how you’re making the words and sounds that accompany the pictures. This clever little one illustrates the case beautifully, creating a face-to-face experience of her own. Watch as our hero divides her attention between the book (and her important page turning responsibility!) and dad’s face - which she swivels her head to admire with equal (if not greater) interest. Kudos to dad, as well, as he balances book time and face time with his daughter - taking time to honor her interest in connection and observation. The logistics can obviously be a little trickier (consider reading face-to-face as your partner holds baby in their lap as one potential solution) - but the benefits are well worth the effort. Face-to-face reading for the win! This adorable father-daughter duo was shared to IG by mylittlemissameliaa.
