Name-and-show

When baby shows the parent an object — by holding it up, pointing, or bringing it over — the parent names it warmly and returns the attention. Agent coaches the parent to treat every 'showing' as a meaningful bid for connection. Observations track baby's initiations and parent's responsiveness to bids.
