Lesson Overview

8.1 – Communication Basics With Toddlers: Toddlers communicate through actions, sounds, and simple words. Get down to their level to make eye contact and show warmth. Use short, clear sentences with gentle tone and gestures. Repeat key words to help language grow naturally. Praise attempts to express needs, even if the words aren’t perfect. Be patient when emotions lead before language does. Label feelings like “mad” or “tired” to build awareness. Offer choices to give them small control and reduce frustration. Watch for cues like pointing or facial expressions to understand better. Consistent, kind communication lays the foundation for trust and learning.
