NotesHave you ever wondered what your infant or toddler is trying to tell you? Are you dreading the "terrible" twos? Imagine being able to communicate with your child before they can talk! Well NOW you CAN! Children are able to use motor skills far more efficiently than verbal skills in the first 3 years of life. The Baby Signs® program incorporates the use of these motor skills with two decades of research funded by the National Institutes of Health to provide you with an enjoyable way to learn how to use Sign Language to communicate with your child. Research shows that children who use the Baby Signs® program in their first years of life are speaking closer to a 4 year old's level by the age of 3. There are also several social and emotional benefits that come from learning signs, including: REDUCED tears, tantrums, and frustration Forms a stronger parent/child bond Boosts self-esteem Creates confidence Enhances intellectual development The Baby Signs® program is offered through Sign, Say & Play® classes. Each class offers 6 weeks of themed classes that result in 37 signs for you and your child to use every day! No more wondering what your child is trying to say - now you'll know exactly what your child is telling you! Contact me TODAY to set up a FREE demonstration for you and your friends or family! You don't want to regret missing this priceless opportunity when your child turns 2!!Baby Sign Language Class--NEW SESSION STARTS 11/2!!!
Event TimeDescriptionMy Smart Hands with Maria is pleased to announce that a new Level One session will be taught in the Family Room at Milagros Boutique. What to expect from a Level One Class: In this 8-week program you will learn over 100 ASL signs to use with your child. Each class allows for review, discussions, songs, and practice of signs in a playful, educational, and language-rich environment where caregivers and children will build their vocabulary. Classes are 45 minutes in length and are created for parents/ caregivers and babies. This program is recommended for pre-verbal babies with little to no signing exposure. Most babies are developmentally ready for signing back to their caregivers around 8-10 months of age, but exposure to sign can begin at birth. The typical age of attending babies is 6-18 months. If you have an older or more experience baby and wish to take a Level Two class please contact me for more details.
