Dear Trinayani, you can now show him different colours and tell him the names of the colours. l taught my son some easy names of vegetables like potato, carrots, capsicum,eggplant etc. HE CAN'T UTTER THESE NAMES BUT IF I SHOW HIM THE PICTURES OF VARIOUS VEGETABLES AND ASK "Where is a eggplant ?" He SHOWS ME THE CORRECT PICTURE. Teach him some easy animal names like cat,dog,cow etc. I BOUGHT SOME NICE BOARD BOOKS THAT MY SON LOVE VERY MUCH.

Trinayani u can teach him the name of things he has been using or seeing around , u could make a sentence and say-my baby wants milk? let him say milk . show milk and repeat 2-3 times. gradually he will pick up the sentence. also u could talk about whatever he sees around. like when u take him to the park, keep talking to him. we might think baby is not able to understand so what's the point of talking. but a child is learning all the time and we never know when he will surprise u by repeating what he heard some time back..
