Part milestone checklist, part baby book.

You think you'll remember all the sweet, precious things your little one does and says, but you won't.

Your baby is communicating long before they ever say a word.
This journal helps you notice it, celebrate it, and support it.

Why Parents Love This Journal

Unlike traditional baby books, this journal doesn’t just ask you to document milestones — it teaches you what they mean and why they matter.

✔ Helps you track both receptive (understanding) and expressive (speaking & gestures) language
✔ Gives you confidence to recognize strengths and spot concerns early
✔ Supports meaningful conversations with your pediatrician or speech-language pathologist
✔ Becomes a keepsake you’ll treasure for years

What’s Inside

This journal covers language milestones from birth to age five, based on developmental guidelines adapted from the CDC and ASHA.

You’ll track:

Receptive Language – what your child understands

Expressive Language – how your child communicates through sounds, gestures, and words

Articulation – how clearly your child pronounces sounds

Space at every age to write: “Brilliant Ways I Communicated” — capturing the memories that don’t fit in check boxes.

Who This Journal Is For

This journal is perfect for:

Parents of babies and toddlers ages 0–5

Families focused on early language development

Baby shower or first birthday gifts

Why Language Tracking Matters

We know from research that children with language delays are more likely to struggle with reading later on, and early intervention can make all the difference. When you're informed, you can keep a close eye on your baby's development, tracking their progress so that if the need arises, you can be ready to have a conversations with your pediatrician.
