talking with babies and small children

English has some very "cute" words which people use especially to talk with children:

small children =kiddies

very small children=toddlers

baby shoes = bootees

small laugh = chuckle

animals: dog becomes doggie, cat becomes pussy, frog becomes froggy

sometimes we add a sound: "moo cow" 

I'll build up this list when I think of more

 

Bye for now
