Sign with Me

I am thrilled to see Signing Time on PBS, I enjoy watching Rachel Coleman and her story is inspiring, it is wonderful that her talents have brought so much joy to many families. Her creativeness is phenomenal, I love how she thought of using the colored band aids in her videos to show which fingers are being used!

Teaching your child to sign is a fun way to establish a higher level of communication. The book Everyday Signs for the Newborn Baby is a starting point for parents to learn to sign at their own pace, pick up the book and read it for sheer pleasure with their child as they learn to manipulate their hand shapes. The book is incredible as it is designed to provide the first and second motion of the sign at a flick of a flap. The reference guide in the back is perfect for many of us who forget what the sign is or how it is supposed to be motioned, especially if our little ones didn’t let us sleep much the night before:-)
