Infant Sign Language
Simple Signing Fun
So how does infant sign language differ from sign language for adults?
Teaching babies and toddlers sign language differs to teaching adults, because we are not teaching them the sign language alphabet, but instead a relevant group of signs that will help our baby to communicate with us.
See the sign pictured below- more food, or eat.
You may be worried about not having any experience with sign language for babies yourself. Relax! You will soon see that the first signs are probably ones that you already know and use. Signing is just like teaching your baby colors and shapes, but the benefit of learning sign language is that it can reduce the frustration of both you and your child. There are a huge number of baby sign language books and DVDs available or you can also use an online dictionary for signing to find a word that we want to learn.
