My First 12 Everyday Words for Babies 10–11 Months
My first 12 everyday words for 10-11 month old babies can fit naturally into everyday play and routines. For a 10–11-month-old baby, focus on pointing, choosing, imitation, and familiar routines: model one small idea, repeat it naturally, and follow your child’s interest rather than turning the moment into a test.

Off-Screen Extension
Use one familiar object and one simple action related to first words; repeat the same word/action 3–5 times and let the child explore.
