Exploring new sounds

Focusing your attention on the sources of sounds around you and labelling them can be a helpful activity. Engaging in this exercise with your baby can enhance their listening abilities and contribute to their language learning experience as they grow.

Here are some useful tips for this activity:

  • Name the different sounds that your baby can hear, such as the sound of birds chirping, cars passing, or a dog barking in the target language.
  • It is important to repeat the words several times so your baby can learn and remember them.
  • Help familiarise your baby with new sounds and new words in the target language. This will support their language development and communication skills as they grow.
