Teddy Sends a Message in German

In “Teddy Sends a Message,” you gently pass on little messages from familiar people during your baby's everyday routines. Practise third-person singular Konjunktiv I forms such as sei, habe and warte to mark information as someone else's words without suggesting disbelief. These forms sound more literary than ordinary family conversation, so use them as playful narration while your baby listens, watches or babbles back.
