Imitation: Babies learn from imitating us. If you model the behavior you wish your child to display, he will learn more quickly. Try to be as consistent in your responses to your baby as you can.

When he is a toddler: Babies don't understand complex phrases, but they learn to interpret a parent's tone of voice, repetition of words, facial expressions, eye movements, hand gestures, touching movements, etc. . . When a baby becomes a toddler, between 12-18 months of age, he starts to understand words and phrases.
