Today i was playing with Vijay's 6 months old kid Prithvi,[Vijay is my colleague and neighbour] and i was watching him try really hard to grab the pepsi can that i was holding. He's not on his 4 feet yet, and just about manages to crawl to whatever he wants. I learnt that it'll be another month or so before he can move on all fours......he makes sounds like he is talking to us and wants to tell us something......it made me wonder what must be going through the brain inside that little head......Does he really know that whatever he wants to say is not understandable by any adult ? Well... the vice versa is something we'll never know, i'm sure.
He's not going to grow up and say "Look, you told me this one day when i was a 6 month old baby and this is what i understood" right ?
When he learns to speak from the people around him, his glossary would have built up and the accent his speech would take, would be that he hears most.......Its really surprising to see the capability of the human brain to learn so much in a short time. He's definitely learnt a lot and does a lot of things that he didn't 4 months ago......I've always had this thought whenever i play with babies like these.
