[quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny. I am not looking after an infant right now, but when I was, I talked to her a lot. I would say things like: You are eating bananas. Bananas are a fruit. Bananas are yellow. I am feeding you bananas with a green spoon. The bananas are in a bowl. The bowl is blue. When we went outside, I did the same. "That is a tree. The tree has leaves. The leaves are green. In the fall the leaves turn brown." Etc. I remember telling her all about the guy who invented Boudreaux's butt paste. I had googled it because I wondered how a guy whose parents gave him a sucky name could have enough confidence to invent and market a diaper cream. When the baby would babble in her sweet baby talk way, I would pretend that her little nonsense words were the names of towns she was interested in visiting some day when she was a grown up. So then I would make up stories about the things going on in the "towns" she was talking about. [/quote]
