I think most babies first learn the sound a cow, dog, or kitty cat make. Not my daughter...and not because it's her fault, but totally because her mom taught her this sound first.
Lilah has a little stuffed monkey that lives next to her changing pad. She snuggles with it or we use it occasionally as a distraction when changing her diapers. So I always tell her that a monkey makes the sound, "ooh ooh, ahh ahh".
Now she knows when I ask, "What sound does a monkey make?". Her's is a little different than mine ("ahh, ahh") and includes a body shake for some reason (I guess that helps her get the "ahh, ahh" out).
When will she encounter a monkey and be able to make that sound to them - well, probably not until we visit the zoo. But, regardless, it's pretty cute.
