 Simple Ways to Improve Your Baby’s Learning and Signing Progress | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:27:00

Dr. Lynn Scoresby, PhD Child and Family Psychologist teaches us simple ways to increase our baby’s learning ability The baby years are a special window of opportunity when the brain develops at the fastest pace and takes in the most information. You can take advantage of this time and create a great learning environment in your home with simple activities. Routine activities provide an amazing opportunity to learn because they repeat. You can use them to introduce simple learning experiences like counting toes while changing diapers. Dr. Scoresby breaks learning in to three areas: emotions, language, and numbers. Language: Labeling, self-talk, etc. Label things as you go through out the day and talk to your baby even when she can’t talk back so she can get more language. The more she gets the better (that includes sign langauge). Numbers: Sorting socks, counting stuffed animals, counting stairs, counting toes and so forth. Have positive feeling about numbers (don’t pass your fears on to your baby) Emotions: Label your emotions for your child, tell your child how you are feeling, allow him to feel his emotions and acknowledge them. Research shows that children whose emotions were validated as a child grow up better adjusted and able to deal with their emotions. For more information on Dr. Scoresby’s books and materials, go to www.kgls.com or contact brett@kgls.com. Phone 801.225.9585 or 1.800.526.7793 Signing Progress Stacey is signing with her youngest baby, Spencer, and she reported that this week Spencer seemed not as interested in signing as in past weeks. This is a common thing. When babies are going through a learning curve learning something new, they will often backtrack in some other skills that they have started to master. When we mentioned this to Stacey, she said, “That’s right. This week, he said his first word and it was ‘MaMa.’” Congrats on the first word. Stacey should keep signing with Spencer and he will continue to sign when he masters the skill he is working on.

 Must-have Items for Moms | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:27:00

Today’s show is about How to sign with Your Baby  and Must Have Items for Moms! #1 – Hand Sanitizer Purell, GermX, and PureWorks Antibacterial Foam  are top picks.PureWorks not only has antibacterial moisturizing foam, but antibacterial lotion, soap and a surface cleaner. Love it!!! #2 – Aquaphor Healing OintmentThis comes in a tub or a tube and you use it INSTEAD of diaper ointment. It is for excema or rough skin, but it creates the best barrier for preventing diaper rash. I recommend the tube because when you only have 1 hand available, its a little easier to get the ointment out and apply with very little mess. The tub must be screwed off and the chance of baby getting a foot loose and plopping it right into the container is great (personal experience). #3 – HumidifierUltrasonic humidifiers produce a micro-fine mist when water is passed over an ultrasonic nebuliser (high frequency vibrating apparatus). With proper cleaning, it reduces the amount of bacterial spores that can be found using a warm and cool mist humidifier. Walmart sells a ReliOn brand for around $30 and I love it! #4 – Vibrating BouncerIt doesnt matter what brand or what it looks like, just make sure it vibrates. They say vibrating simulates a car ride. Many mothers say that they would much rather have a vital organ removed than give up their bouncer. The most popular brand would be made by Fisher Price. Also it grows with them and can be used as a feeding chair when the get older. #5 – Disposable BibsPampers Pocket Bibsters or Pibs Disposable Bibs at www.pibsonaroll.com/ they fit on a standard paper towel holder. #6 – Lansinoh LanolinA definite must-have for all nursing mothers! It takes a while for both our baby and us (unless you are plain good) to get the hang of the whole breastfeeding thing. During that time, our main food source to our babies can be quite sore! Lansinoh Lanolin helps repair and keeps them soft to eliminate cracking. Ouch! #7 – Nursing PadsEven if you don’t decide to nurse, you will likely need these until your milk dries up. For those who choose to nurse, there are many of us who know that there is nothing worse than a leak! Keep them handy and always take extra! Two types – disposable and reusable. The best disposable according to moms would be the Lansinoh brand and then Johnson & Johnson. Medela, Avent and Gerber make reusable pads. #8 – Crib Sheets/Mattress PadYou wake up to your baby hungry and dirty from head to toe. The real trick is how do you change the explosion, get them fed, and change the sheets without turning on the light to completely wake them up. Easy! The Ultimate Crib Sheet! It’s a miracle! Found at Babies R Us and internet sites. #9 – Well stocked FirstAid Kit Infant Tylenol, Infant Motrin, Childrens Benedril (get chart from doctor regarding) baby clippers with a long ribbon attached to find easily rectal digital thermometer Petrolium Jelly for lubricating rectal thermometer Saline nose drops Nose bulb from hospital Aquaphor Check you local Red Cross for Infant First Aid book and Infant CPR card, Index card with important numbers (i.e., doctor, poison control, hospital). #10 – Well stocked Diaper Bag For Baby: list of contents in bag for easy checking before leaving Satalite Bag that holds diapers, full travel container wipes, changing pad or lap pad, Aquaphor, and a couple Ziploc sandwich bag to put soiled diapers. (check out the bags at: http://www.laragallagher.com/bags/index.html) Hand Sanitizer travel-sized lotion Infant Tylenol small pair of folded Scissors extra pacifier in Ziploc bag travel-size tissue receiving blanket extra onesies for complete blowouts plastic containers with pre-measured formula bottles filled with filtered water couple of burp cloths extra thermometer For Mom: Tide Wipes Nursing Pads Bottle of water and granola bar
