Decoding of children's language

By nine months, most children already have a real language( sounds plus gestures) that parents understand, but outsiders rarely. It is when you face the need to understand these gestures that your early exercises fully pay off when you try to understand the signals and crying of your child. Besides, pay attention to the fact that each need is indicated by a separate sound. Our Matthew pronounced "Mam-Mam-Mam-Mom" when he wanted to be picked up. Here are some of the most common gestures and sounds.

Pinching the with your finger and touching it. Children start to show their finger and touch almost the same way as young mothers, as observations show, at first touch their newborn children, first with their fingertips and then fully opened palm. Now the child also begins to understand when you point.

Note. At about six months, Matthew began to touch our cat. For the first time he approached an unsuspecting cat with an open palm and fingers spread out. At first he touched the cat's head with the tip of his index finger. Then he examined the cat with the tips of all the other fingers, and then put the entire palm on the cat and grabbed the wool into a fist.

Greeting incoming. Look and listen when your child calls for the game. When a dad enters the room, for example, the baby comes to life. His whole face shines, he smiles broadly, waves his hands and turns to his dad with his whole body, speaking the body language: "Let's play!"

Sounds that convey the mood.

Listen and see what sounds your child conveys pleasure and displeasure. When the child is cheerful, his face is animated by a facial expression directed upwards: bright eyes, facial muscles are pulled upwards, a smile raises the cheeks with tubercles. He laughs, yelps and makes a laugh with his belly;His whole body comes into motion, and he makes joyful sounds, such as "ba-ba-ba-ba".

When a child is uncomfortable, he mournfully mutters and grumbles. At this age there is a universal sound "n", serving for the expression of negative emotions. When a child

refuses to take medicine, he can say: "on-na-na-na".The child puts on his face a displeased expression: the mouth curls in a grimace, and all the facial muscles go down. And if you quickly do not understand what the child wants to say, these sounds and gestures will outgrow into crying.
