Who's That? Family Photo Chat
Parent shows family photos to baby and names familiar people, encouraging early word attempts and sound imitation. The agent coaches the parent to observe baby's attempts to label caregivers, imitate simple words, and engage in back-and-forth communication — building early language foundations through meaningful social interaction.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Parent and baby sitting together on floor or soft surface. 3-5 family photos within reach (clear pictures of familiar people). Baby should be alert and engaged. Room should be quiet with minimal distractions.
