Detailed explanation-1: -Baby Talk: Imitate Your Baby Imitate baby’s vocalizations–“ba-ba” or “goo-goo”–then wait for them to make another sound, and repeat that back. Do your best to respond, even when you don’t understand what your baby is trying to say. Reinforce communication by smiling and mirroring facial expressions.
Detailed explanation-2: -A baby’s first babbling sounds usually are made around 4-6 months of life, as infants practice the speech sounds used later to form syllables, words, or sentences. In time, the syllables they form become more complex, and by the end of the first year, infants may begin producing their actual first words.
Detailed explanation-3: -Babies learn how to manipulate sounds that make up the puzzle of language. When your baby babbles, they are learning how to move their lips and tongue to replicate the sounds of their native language. By playing with their voice, babies master the building blocks of language and also learn how to modulate their voice.
