Babies Need Talk, Not Tech!

Too little talk can contribute to communication delays....


This baby mobile seems ridiculous, I know, but the majority of parents give their very young children tablets, smartphones and video game consoles to keep them entertained and pacified. They might not realize that they are jeopardizing their children's communication and social development. 


So pass this message along: Ditch the tech in favor of talk! Your baby will benefit, and so will your relationship with your child! Check out the video by Identify the Signs.Org.
