Starting Solids, is your Baby Ready?

Starting Solids, is your Baby Ready?

September 9, 2022October 27, 2022 speechinthecity Comments Off on Starting Solids, is your Baby Ready?

It’s time to get your baby upright in a chair when starting solid foods. Some things people consider when picking a high chair is how easily can you place baby in and lift baby out of the chair? Does the chair come with a removable tray? How secure is baby in the seat? Does the chair have seat straps? Shoulder straps? There are so many features for parents to look at when they are looking into the most secure and easy to maneuver high chair for starting solids. Some fan favorite high chairs we suggest you purchase for you child include: Stokke Tripp Trapp chair, the Abiie Beyond Wooden High Chair with Tray, and Keekaroo® Height Right High Chair. All these high chairs can be brought to the table. We suggest adjusting your child to the proper seating position for feeding, which is especially important when starting solid foods. More information on starting solids here. If you have questions about picking out high chairs please feel free to email us. PS, we have seen a lot of great high chair deals on Facebook Marketplace.

Speech Therapy Activities Parents Can Do at Home in 10 Minutes a Day

To support your child's language development, focus on incorporating a few simple, effective strategies into your daily routine. By using these Speech Therapy Activities Parents Can Do at Home in 10 Minutes a Day, you can make a significant impact. First, make reading time interactive with repeated-line books like "Brown Bear, Brown Bear." Use different voices and pause to let your child fill in the blanks, which helps build their vocabulary and memory. Second, get down to your child's eye level to talk. Holding objects at your eye level encourages them to watch your mouth, which helps them learn how to form words. Third, respond to every sound your child makes—coos, babbles, or even grunts. Attribute meaning to their sounds and "serve it back" by turning their sounds into full sentences. Finally, use simple gestures while you talk to your child to give them a way to communicate before they have words, and consider creating a quiet play space, like a tent, for them to feel safe and calm.
