Question

Answer 1

Its like.. how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop..

The world may never know..

Answer 2

I've always wondered that. Maybe you just think of pictures and stuff like that. But theres always that little voice inside your head, maybe its babbling of some sort?

Answer 3

we are always thinking. but "thoughts" don't form until we aquire languange and become able to communicate those thoughts to other people.

so i'm going with: you don't start thinking with "words" until you learn to associate what those words mean i.e., when you can talk. until then, i'm thinking babies have thoughts on senses: smell, taste, touch, sight, hearing

Answer 4

Its weird.. But you know a baby must have thoughts.. Hey if I whine mom will come and see if I need, A) A change B) Food or C) some TLC.. Maybe instead of thinking words its a colorfull little cartoon..
