Hello wonderful children and parents, I hope you are in health just as i am, Today on my blog i will be sharing the simple commands/communication tips i use with my son, i find this very intriguing and i wanted to share with someone this simple commands. Babies learn alot from the parent/guardian as we are their first teachers, everything we do or say mirrors on this children as they are watching each and every of our moves and acts. So as parents/guardians we should watch how we speak, our choice of words and the things we do generally when our children as watching so as not to leave any negative impact on this young ones. I began teaching my son simple commands at about 8months, i started by saying a simple and clear sentence and then i act out the responses for him to see and gradually he understood then and could independently act those commands out, super cool if you ask me. That been said i will proceed to my little one and i's simple commands and his response to them by acting them out. ***picture below is that of my 9months old son(Nathan)*** ![InShot_20210808_114038995.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPSku2cAZY2JZ1LmunfXL81wgHiWhJ1FnfdZZMm4rovqd/InShot_20210808_114038995.jpg) ### The simple commands and his responses (in GIFs)goes thus:- 1.
