Crib talk

Crib talk is when babies and toddlers make noises and babble to themselves while lying down in their crib. It's kind of like they are talking to themselves and having their own private conversation.

When babies are very young, they start making sounds and experimenting with their voices. Crib talk is a natural part of this process. As they get older and start to understand more about the world around them, they might start to use crib talk to process what they've learned during the day.

Sometimes, crib talk can be a sign that a baby or toddler is feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated. It's their way of calming themselves down and coping with their emotions. This is why it's important for parents to pay attention to their child's cues and try to create a calm, soothing environment for them to sleep in.

Overall, crib talk is a perfectly normal and healthy part of a child's development. It's a way for them to explore their own voice and emotions, and to process all the new information they encounter each day. So the next time you hear your little one babbling away in their crib, just remember that they're having their own little chat with themselves, and it's all part of growing up.
