Sounds and emotions in busy environments

What to try 

• When you and your baby are with other people or in a busy place be sensitive to how your baby responds.  
• If you notice that your baby cries when they hear another baby cry, comfort your baby and say, “Oh dear, someone is sad... they are crying.”  
• Your baby might not understand the words, but with experience and repetition they will begin to make connections between what you say and what is happening.
