Question

find a class mate's discussion about a different age groups infants and describe how you would communicate with that age group

Answer 1

Infants are unable to use words, ibfanta primarily use and understand nonverbal communication. Infants communicate their needs and feelings through nonverbal behaviours and vocalizations that can be interpreted by someone who is around them for a sufficient time. Infants smile and coo when content and cry when distressed.

Infants respond to adults nonverbal behaviours. They become quiet when they are cuddled, are patted, or receive other forms of gentle physical contact. They derive comfort from the sound of a voice, even though they do not understand the words that are spoken.

Until infants reach the age at which they experience stranger anxiety, they readily respond to any, firm, gentle handling and quiet, calm speech. Loud, harsh sounds and sudden movements are frightening.
