Helping Hands, Figuratively Speaking in German

Helping Hands, Figuratively Speaking introduces familiar German body-part idioms for support, irritation and consideration during baby care. Practise their fixed grammar in warm, natural speech, keeping frustration directed at objects or situations rather than your child. Your baby or toddler can simply listen, babble or respond with a single word; understanding or repeating the idioms is not expected.
