Babies are the most receptive creatures in the world. They need stimulation, affection, caresses and, above all, words. Everything a baby hears will leave a permanent mark on their brains. Therefore, we should be wonderful architects of love that can be understood by our tone. We should guide them with a warm voice that embraces and stimulates.
People who think that talking to a newborn is silly are completely wrong. They are also contributing to creating shortcomings and putting the brakes on the communicative processes that a child needs to develop.
Babies should be spoken to face to face. We should talk to them a lot, sing to them, whisper and tell them stories. Despite the fact that they still can’t decipher the mystery of the words we say, they are skillful translators of emotions. They are the small pioneers of the language process.
They’ll slowly start to understand the meaning of certain words as days and months go by. Before we know it, they will understand sentences and start to communicate themselves. This fantastic process must take place in a favorable, affectionate and familiar environment.
Even if we do not speak directly to our newborns, everything our baby hears will be recorded in their brains that are in continuous development. Therefore, you should never hesitate, you are doing just fine. If you are a parent that never stops talking to your baby, your baby is very luck to have you.
We will explain why
We are all aware that newborns spend most of their time asleep. However, throughout their first weeks and months of life, there are wonderful moments in which we can initiate the magical process of stimulating the child’s brain through language.
Mom’s voice has power, it has always been there, long before the baby came into the world. A child has already spent 9 months in womb of the woman who now rocks him, feeds him and attends to him.
Wonderful mothers and exceptional fathers are those who educate with affection. They leave traces of love on their children’s brains.
Communicating with your baby should be reinforced with gestures and an appropriate tone. This way we can consolidate both verbal and non-verbal language. At the same time gestures are great mood promoters.
It is also very important to try to understand your baby’s communicative process. Babies also make gestures, smiles and a range of sounds. Another way to reinforce language is to imitate their gestures and sounds. This way we will make them feel that we understand them. Everything they say is important and valued.
The way that adults talk to babies has been coined “baby talk.” It is a concept that most parents put into practice every day.
In conclusion, there are infinite reasons to start communicating with your child from as early as possible. From the first moment that they arrive in the world and have their skin close to yours. They need you, they also need to learn how to communicate.
So then, remember that all of the first words we share with them leave a mark on their brain. All the words your baby hears will get them on their way to mastering the language. They will be able to understand the world through the always-present and warm voice that shows them the infinite affection that we have for them.
