Communication is what humans and animals use to share thoughts, ideas, and emotions. You may be surprised to know that from birth onwards, your child will instinctively communicate with you-- at first by crying and smiling and as time passes by different signals and expressions. A baby first recognizes and bonds with its mother and seeks her guidance in exploring the world. Most early learning stems from the immediate environment, and the parents and caregivers are the first teachers. A baby learns quickly by imitating sounds and words heard each day, songs sung to it, and from toys, books, as well as pictures.
