    False

    Explanation:

    A participial phrase starts with a participle and includes other modifiers and direct objects (or subject complements). So the formula for a participial phrase goes something like this: participle + modifiers + direct object (or subject complement). There are no phrases corresponding to the formula.

    Answer: False.

    Explanation: a participle is a word formed from a verb and used as an adjective, a noun, or to make compound verb forms. A participial phrase is a group of words containing a participle and modifiers that acts as an adjective. In the given sentence we can see an example of a participle in the word "grinning" which is acting as an adjective that modifies the noun "baby," but because it is only one word, it is not a participial phrase.
