Your baby’s weaning journey is also shaping how they’ll speak later on!

Did you know? 

Your baby’s mealtime milestones are secretly preparing them for their first words.

Using a Spoon – helps babies strengthen their tongue and lip coordination.  These are important muscles for forming sounds and words.

Drinking from a Straw or Open Cup – builds control over breath and jaw movements, that is essential for clearer speech and better pronunciation.

Self-Feeding Skills - Encourage independence and sensory awareness, both key for oral exploration and speech readiness.

Quick Tip

Introduce a variety of safe weaning tools early on, such as silicone spoons, straw cups, and open training cups to support both feeding and speech development.
