3. Turn on the tape recorder and talk to your baby, make mouth noises, vocalize in a variety of ways, and so on, to get your baby to talk back.
4. Pause between your vocalizations so your baby has a chance to answer you.

Safety: Don’t play back the sound too loudly, to protect your baby’s hearing.
