I came across this article while browsing the BabyCenter forum.
First of all, you need to talk as much as you can directly to your baby. The best is to make these conversations just between the two of you. This will reduce the possibility of distractions and your baby will get the best out of these sessions. Look at him while you talk. Let him see your face and your gestures.
Show your baby what you mean, by matching what you do to what you say. For example, "Take off your shirt", you say, taking the shirt off over his/her head.
You have to show enthusiasm, emotion and emphasis. These are qualities that will catch his/her attention and encourage him to try to comprehend what you are saying.
Give the above a try... I will and hope you find this useful too.... ;p
