- As mom wakes up baby, she greats him with a warm and clear toned "Good Morning." Adding in examples of how baby can respond to the mothers conversational question, can help give the baby more exposure to language. Simply being exposed to speech and language can help baby learn!

- As mom gets baby ready for the day, it is beneficial to narrate the seemingly mundane action of the day. This can help with word association. For example, "We are putting on your green shirt."

- Mom is utilizing the pairing of a gesture with a short phrase. As they finished their breakfast, the mom raises her arms and says "All Done." This can help give baby an example of how gestures can be used to communicate as language. Soon baby will mimic mom and raise is arms signifying "all done".
- *Raises arms* All Done!
- When mom is asking baby to find a specific toy, the baby is able to practice both interpreting language and self exploration as well as other skills like object permanence. This could lead to learning null statements like "No, that's your red car." Then encouraging with "where is your green frog?"
- Wow Look at all these toys. Can you find your green frog?
- In this scene, mom repeats back baby saying "frog." Repeating back baby's words can help validate their response. Also, mom gives positive encouragement to a job well done by baby! This creates a positive learning environment, vital to the development of baby's language.
- Frog!
