Family Games:

1. Who calls the baby: This game trains the baby's hearing and develops the baby's language system.

Game steps: You and your baby pick up the toy phone at the same time and keep a certain distance between them. Simulate talking to your baby on the phone: "Hello, hello, hello...", call the baby's name, greet the baby's toys, say some words that you usually say to the baby in life, look at the baby and observe the baby's reaction. When you put the phone back on the set, say goodbye to your baby and teach him or her to put the phone away. Talking to your baby on the phone will make him feel confused and curious. At this time, you should tell your baby that you are making a phone call and encourage your baby to listen to the sound on the phone. After you demonstrate it many times, your baby will develop a strong interest in the telephone because it can make sounds. Once your baby is familiar with this game, he will take the initiative to pick up the phone, wait for you to pick up the other one, and then happily listen to you talking to him on the phone.

Daddy School:

It is not advisable to laugh at your baby hitting someone. Babies aged 7-9 months can feel the attitudes of adults and have a preliminary understanding of language. At this stage, as a father, you should correct and stop your baby's bad behaviors in time. For example, if a baby occasionally hits someone, and the adults immediately laugh and still let him hit others, this will sow the seeds for the baby to develop a habit of hitting others. Because adults' laughter is an encouragement to babies, babies form a habit under the encouragement of adults, and will hit anyone they meet in the future. Therefore, when he hits others, parents should pretend to be unhappy and stop the child from hitting others in time. If the baby's wrong behavior is stopped in time, it will not be repeated in the future.
