HOW TO TEACH YOUR 1 YEAR OLD TO TALK | TEACHING MY TODDLER | DITL OF A STAY AT HOME MOM 2019

[Music] [Music] come on Enid baby how do you mama pickle [Music] [Music] where is your head right here is your belly what about your hands yeah it's so smart [Music] hey guys welcome to today's blog I woke up with a super like stuffy nose this morning so if I sound congested it's because I am on Instagram I told you guys I had a sore throat earlier in the week it was like really really bad like I could barely even like swallow without it being like super super painful and now it looks like I'm just a little bit congested so things have been a little bit rough this week dealing with a toddler and a cold it's definitely not fun so the focus of today's vlog it's gonna be something that you guys have asked me for non-stop like hands down every single time that I put up on Instagram I'm like what do you guys want to see from my channel this is the number one response that I get I get so many of you guys asking me how I teach rightly all the things that she knows you guys are always like can you just film a video telling us how you get ready to be so smart so that's what we're gonna be doing today we're gonna be hanging out at the house I'm gonna be showing you just like some of the activities and stuff that I do with variety to teach her all of the animal sounds and all the words that she knows friendly how do you say Papa that's probably the first thing that you guys should know for every single time that you guys see her actually saying words and actually saying animal noises and things like that there are plenty of times that I ask her to do it and she does not respond by the way I'm obsessed with her new little doll I showed you guys yesterday on Instagram but she is so cute her name is Zoe Louise and she's from my petite collection they have a couple different dolls they have like a cat but I loved this little toy I love the colors on her and she is just so cute so she is Riley's new friend she's fascinated by this little pillow that I bought for her room since we're like updating her room I bought this little pillow yesterday at Walmart I thought it was so cute and then look at her PJs I bought these on Amazon it was a set of two it has this like little unicorn cupcake and then it also has like a unicorn one so those are really cute so I'll leave those link down below here are your magnets just play with your magnets I've shown you guys these magnets before she's about to like start standing up she's done it a couple times but these are the Melissa and Doug magnets and we love these and they have a whole bunch of different sets but we like the animal ones because we've been practicing just like different animals so I will spend a lot of time just like going through the and just being like okay this is a lion showing her the lion this is a lion how does a lion go roar and then which one is that one how does the elephant go and that's how the elephant goes so I'll just look at these and just say the names of them and then say like what they sound like I have no idea what a giraffe sounds like so she just knows that - giraffe this is also like just a baking sheet because it's magnetic so I just put it out so she can practice putting them on the baking sheet Riley where's the sheep the sheep goes baa but where is a sheep so sometimes I'll just like mix them all together either here on the floor and then I'll just ask her to find certain animals right now she wants to play with her other toys but the whole point of like these magnets and stuff like that like when you're trying to get them to learn words and sounds and things like that is that you're just gonna repeat yourself a million times and half the time they're gonna look at you like what the heck are you talking about lady but I find that over time like she understands more and over time she starts recognizing things so don't get frustrated if you're looking at your kid and you're like horse horse this is a horse the horse goes neigh neigh and they're just like they can't repeat it or they can't say it like it takes time another toy that we really like which I've shown you guys before but this is called AC confined I think they're a play inside I don't know I will link it down below cuz I found it on Amazon but this is another really cute toy that has like animal sound so like it has you know you can point it towards a horse and then you pull on it and then it makes a sound and she seems to really like that Riley how does a cow go Riley where's the cat can you find the cat where's the cat no I don't feel like it okay naina yeah so this one has like all the farm animals here and then you flip it and it has like more animals gonna do the elephant yeah what about the monkey you see the monkey so I've also shown you guys this little book which we love and I will spend a lot of time just going through the different pages and asking her to find different things like first obviously I have to teach her like I have to say okay this is an airplane and then this is a car and then after a lot of times I can be like hey Riley where's the airplane Gordy I could job where's the ball good job so I highly recommend if you don't have one of these for your little ones that you get one and I'm gonna leave links to everything down below all the things that I can find that I think would be helpful for you guys like your little book or not so much right now another thing that I think is worth mentioning is the fact that Riley watches a lot of TV so I know I know that there are so many moms and people who say that watching TV is bad for the babies and screen time is bad all of that but I never lose so Riley has watched a lot of TV and honestly I think that that has helped her vocabulary like a ton I'm very careful and like very picky about what she watches but she's been watching Baby Einstein since she was like months old like she has watched Baby Einstein and it's so funny because my brother my brother is nine years younger than me and I remember growing up and my brother used to watch Baby Einstein videos all the time when he was a kid my brother turned out to be the valedictorian of his school so I don't know if that's any indication of what screen time and babies and watching Baby Einstein does for that but I think that Riley is very smart and a lot of what she has learned like sometimes you guys would be like oh my god how did you teach her that and I'm like I don't know I didn't really feature that I think a lot of stuff she picks up from videos like that so I do like for her to watch baby Einstein it's very good like a lot of it is just like classical music and they're showing objects and they're saying words so I highly recommend that you check out the Baby Einstein videos and then she also watches some educational shows like Daniel the Tigers really good Daniel the tiger teaches them a lot of stuff so I really liked that and I also let her watch like the super simple songs like those are really cute they have like a lot of Nursery Rhymes and stuff like that she's happy because I'm distracted right now and she can just take my phone away I have my phone back are you calling somebody ring ring ring that's something else that I do a lot like I'm trying to teach her a lot of things that she come like mimic me doing so like she has like a little phone here and I don't know exactly where it is do you know your phone is I don't know where it is it's probably under the couch somewhere but she has a little phone and I will put it up to my ear and I'll have a conversation with the phone and she sees me doing that and then she starts doing it herself so they pick up on a lot of things like that the same thing with like her little food truck she's now at the point where she is you know feeding it to me or she'll feed it to herself oh who are you calling oh no she called like my emergency contact and that's Joe and he's sleeping in the other room but worked a night shift so his sleeping he got home I got to in the morning and she's waking him up yeah I spend a lot of time talking to Riley like I'm here at the house with her and I'm talking to her non-stop so she definitely hears a lot of conversation all day long and then let me get her little tablet so you guys can see what I was talking about with those Baby Einstein videos so this is her fire her Amazon freetime Fire tablet I don't know I think that I really like about this tablet is that you can set up different profiles so like Riley can have her own profile when she's a little bigger now it doesn't matter because we're the ones that set up the videos for her but she's not gonna have access to the Internet she's not gonna have access to YouTube or anything like that so she really only had access to like the videos that we have downloaded for her so these are the Baby Einstein videos and then obviously she has baby shark when I kind of the screen time like I don't want you guys to think that I literally just put her in front of a TV and she just watches TV all day like obviously you guys can see she has all her toys out I'm actually gonna take that tablet away from her now but sometimes if she's like particularly cranky I'll put on the TV like the big TV while she plays but she's entertained with other things and not just sitting down in front of a TV with nothing else to do Rizzoli give Zoey hug don't slam her to the floor can can you be gentle can you give her a little hug she was doing that yesterday with her and I was joking I was like I'm trying to get her to be nice because like what if one day she has like a little sister or a little brother and she can't be slamming them into the floor no no that's another word that she knows and she knows when we're telling her not to do something ready how do you make me an ice cream make me an ice cream how do you eat the ice cream how do you say oho [Music] pretty how do you eat ice cream and right now she's just not in the mood to operate so hey that's my life who are all those people where is mama my dad dad who's that yeah is that DP she has names for all of us that's my mom and my dad and my brother and my sister don't touch it no se toca no se toca where's Mimi where's grandpa grandpa I also think it goes without saying that Riley has a whole bunch of books and I will spend a lot of time reading to her showing her her books and this is one of the porn books that we really love and not only will I read it to her but then as she's got an older I can show her like this is a B and then I can be like Riley where's the B can you show my mother B where's the B where's Abby Oh B so it's kind of like you know showing them things pointing at things saying this is a B the B goes buzz buzz and then eventually over time they start to know what it is and even if they can't say it they will know what it is and then eventually they can actually say the word these books are also really good the ones that have sounds so she can press the button it says a lion and then it has like the lion sounds that's this Nate I have never heard a snake that sounds like a frickin line I've also shown you guys for puzzles before but these are another way that we teach her the animals and things like that so she'll play with her puzzle and I'll tell her where is the sheath and she will point at the sheath they also have a puzzle that actually makes the animal sounds like when you put it in it'll like you know make the sound of a pig so I will try to find that one for you guys because it's at my mom's house my mom has that one and Riley seems to really like that one and I don't think I've mentioned it in today's vlog but Riley is actually 14 months old if you guys need like her reference but she has been like a talker like she started talking to her early like saying little things here and there I remember that we went to her one-year doctor's appointment they were looking to see if she had said one word like that was kind of like they just wanted to make sure that she had said one word she had said one word by the time that she was 1 and that was kind of like what they were looking for and at that point she was saying far more than just one word she was saying ball bubbles she was saying mama Dada Dada like she knew a lot of different um words and she was saying stuff like dog and cat so she has been a talker but on the flip side Riley hadn't been very like mobile she's still not walking so I have heard that babies typically are like one or the other they're either like huge talkers or they're very like mobile like they're walking really early so if your little one isn't saying a whole bunch of words and stuff like I wouldn't freak out obviously I'm not a doctor you'd have to talk to your doctor but I've had to be very patient with her on the whole walking situation she's getting there she's like like I said she's starting to stand up by herself so I feel like babies just they have their own timelines as long as your doctors aren't concerned or anything like that all you can do is just try and give them the opportunities to you know learn new things and put them in an environment where they're learning different things and you're talking to them and you're reading to them that's really all you could do we're here in Riley's nursery now but this is another thing that I wanted to show you and it's empty right now but this was a really good gift that she got it was like a set of like all these Baby Einstein little board books so these were really good when she was a little younger she still likes them now but I would read these to her some of them had just different pictures different animals so these were great to like point things out and to show her like new words I think on the back it has like the set of all of them yeah so it was like a whole bunch of different like this one was fruits and veg cheese this one was things that go so this set was awesome they're gonna go see she always tries to like climb her headboard you're just gonna dance alright so I think it's good to mention that I spend a lot of my time pretty much narrating my life to riving um like right now when I was making her her milk I was telling her okay we're gonna make your leche and even though I'm usually home by myself with her and her hair looks crazy but even though it's usually just her and I at the house like I spent a lot of time just talking to her he is he looked like a cuckoo head and just telling her what we're doing and telling her what I'm doing I'll tell her like okay I'm Mama's gonna eat her lunch so I think that's one of the best things that you can do for your little ones is just to talk to them as much as possible narrate your life even though you sound like a crazy person talking to yourself because a lot of times they don't understand but I think it really does help them is that a beautiful baby see hi look at Riley over there cut her little day wolf she's probably up to no good he's trying to figure out how to get down from the little chairs she's been doing good but her but her foot is like not in the there you go I'm gonna sit there and wait for your customers this child is living her best life right now this is her new thing she has gotten so much braver like with standing up on things and she's gonna bust her butt for sure look she's trying to figure out how to get on to this oh this is not good [Music] that's how I've been practicing her standing lately and she's doing good so I feel like it maybe in like another couple weeks maybe she'll get the hang of like actually standing up by herself she did it like a couple times at my mom's house the other day so yeah I just keep practicing all day long that's what my day looks like her she's just there with her pillow living her best life watching bolt and playing with her toys this is what we do we hang out I drink my coffee I finally got around to drinking the coffee that I made it took like several hours before I got around to actually drinking my coffee and we'll hang out here um Joe is working different shifts right now so like tonight he works a night shift so he'll be home with us during the day and then at night he works [Music] I lose my breath whenever I see you you stole my heart what is it that you do okay okay you add colors which is gonna try to stand this is one of Riley's favorite activities I just give her these like plastic cups from the grocery store that we had in our cabinet and she just stacks them so I think that's proof that you don't need to spend a fortune on toys ready just woke up from her nap do anything a little married the little love you just wanna hold you just wanna be with you till we grow this tell me you'll stay all day bue I want it for myself every single day [Music] Wow [Music] never [Applause] I'm looking for Joseph oh there you are daddy on the baby you like being outside we're gonna airplanes birds and dogs what the trifecta Cody how does a horse go no name what about the cat up see a bird how about the cat how does cat go no how do you say dad dad how I say mama hey mama hey mama mama that's that dog did you show daddy how you say be how do you say be mmm how do you say mama you're rude alright so our bathroom is a mess right now Riley's bathroom and these are all of her toys thrown all over the place so normally I would do this when Riley takes a bath every night um when she takes a bath in here she's kind of like less distracted so this is like a really good time to practice things with her and I'm actually taking a bath that's kind of like when I pop quiz her and I asked her all the different things that I asked her every morning but then she also has these little foam things and if you can see them but there are a whole bunch of different like little foam pictures objects treats and when they're wet they stick on to the bathtub like on the side so one of the things that I'll do is I'll just be bathing her and like while she's playing around here when the water is full and she's kind of just splashing around I'll just kind of quit her and just show her different things I'll say this is a tree this is a tree tree that's actually into it I've never told her that this is a tree before I will just go over these a thousand times there's a little star that's a little star and then I'll kind of just line them all up and I'll ask her to show me them but again everything is just repetition just teaching them over and over so that they learn Ivy's words I knew where is a star where's the star can you find the star where's the star good job and where is where's the heart can you show the heart where's the heart good job puffin and dog bone where is a banana where's the banana good job so she loves playing in here and just doing that with me all the time this is definitely a time that we use just to educate her and just to chitchat with her and to make sure that she's learning some new stuff okay so this is a blowout this is poop and it means oh okay I hope that was water not poop but I have to go change this child right so that was disgusting she definitely had a very dirty diaper so I had to clean that but there was one more thing I want to tell you guys before I go so something that I think is really important when you're trying to teach your kiddos new stuff I get super super excited and like outwardly excited whenever she learned something new so any time that she says a new word or does something I clap I cheer like a crazy person like she gets so much like positive reinforcement or whatever that's called whenever she does something new because I really want her to you know be excited when she does stuff that's good you know she's a kind of baby that like she loves attention like she'll do stuff and like then look at us and just like wait there for somebody to clap for her so I think that that kind of encourages her to continue to learn new things to continue to make us happy so I think that there's nothing wrong with just cheering and just making a big deal out of whenever they do something that's good that's new but that's really it guys it is getting late I'm gonna go ahead and feed her and then bathe her and then put her to bed so I hope that you guys did enjoy this vlog I hope that it gave you some ideas to just help you teach your little ones some new things thank you guys so so much for watching I cannot tell you how much that means to me that you guys look to my channel looked at my Instagram to kind of get some ideas and
