Point to each letter, say its name and sound. Ask your child to repeat what you say. E, eh, elephant, I, ih, igloo, O, aw, octopus, U, uh, umbrella. Baby eats yogurt. Baby eats cheese.
Baby eats ice cream.
Baby eats bananas. Baby eats peas. Predictable books will do wonders for your child. They teach the cadence of language. They will help him match sounds to the sight words.
