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!
