Have you ever considered what receptive language is? It's beginning to make sense to your baby
Put simply, receptive language means your baby is understanding the words you say. They are connecting words and look at objects when you name them. Your baby is now also able to connect some action words (verbs), like kiss, clap or drink. These first verbs are the easiest to understand as they always mean the same.
Your baby is transitioning into a new phase of their understanding and they are learning that to follow instructions is a fun, new way of continuing interactions. There are loads of action songs that will support your baby to consolidate these early action words; here's one for you to try:
'The Baby Hokey Pokey'
You put your baby up
You put your baby down
You put your baby up
And you kiss them all around
You tickle, tickle, tickle
And you wiggle, wiggle, wiggle
The baby hokey pokey is fun!
