Babies have the ability to understand and use signs to communicate long before they are able to speak. Learning sign language allows infants and toddlers to convey their needs and wants to parents and caretakers, strengthening bonds and cutting down on frustration-induced tantrums.
In this five-week Introduction to Baby Signing session, I use songs, stories and activities to present and reinforce over 50 basic signs to children and their parents.
Family, Feelings & Fun
Ages 3 - 5 & Parents (5 weeks)

Learning American Sign Language can help preschoolers develop vocabulary, acquire pre-reading skills and learn letters and numbers, in part by accessing visual and kinesthetic learning styles. Signing can also boost social development by giving children more tools for emotional expression.
In this five-week session, I use songs, stories and activities to present and reinforce over 50 signs related to family, feelings and fun. We will also work on ABC's & 123's!
The fee for these sessions are $65 for one child and parent and $5 for each additional child. Other parents, older siblings and grandparents are welcome to attend for free. Signing is most successful when it is a family affair!
Each family to register and attend class will receive a FREE Baby Signing Time Volume 1 digital video.
"Baby Signing Time is an Award winning baby sign language series that teaches baby's first 100 words in American Sign Language through music."
