Getting Dressed Talking Tips
Explain what you are doing while you are getting your baby dressed. Tell your baby what is going on at each step, and use this situation to introduce body parts as well as clothing names.
Conversation starters from Talk With Me Baby
- “Now it’s time to get dressed for our day! Let’s start with your pants. One leg goes in one side of the pants. There we go! And now the other leg. Thank you for your help!”
- “It’s cold today so we’re going to put a hat on your head to keep you warm. Feel how soft the hat is? This hat will keep you nice and toasty today!”
