Baby Signs Book $50 BRU Giveaway! CLOSED
Imagine, the baby is screaming, the phone is ringing, the microwave just stopped, and the older kids knocks their cup on the ground.
You can’t figure out what the baby wants, while the older kids are trying to tell you what the baby is saying. It doesn’t make sense…
What is the first thing you do? (Screaming at the kids because you are tired and frustrated that you don’t understand them doesn’t count)
As this is all happening you realize that there must be a better way to deal with the non-verbal communication.
BABY SIGNS is based on American Sign Language and will help encourage the use of non-verbal gestures to communicate. Research has proven that babies who are taught to use signs to express their basic ideas before they can say words are happier because they can communicate with others.
For me, a parent of 2 kids who did use ASL, this is a great book that will show the basics of non-verbal communication. I love the fact that ASL teaches kids to communicate what their needs and wants are before they can speak.
We have a giveaway to help assist you in your journey with Baby Sign Language!

My son doesn’t talk yet but it’s be awesome if I can communicate with him through ASL. It’d make life easier if I know what he wants!

I have a niece who has Down Syndrome. She is unable to speak due to complications from surgery. Using ASL with her would help us to communicate with her better.

Extra entry: I would like to try ASL with my next baby because communication is so important and my first son didn’t start talking until well after 2! ASL, would have been a lifesaver.

I would like to try ASL because my 2nd son has a speech delay. Although he has gotten much better with speech therapy, I think it would be a good idea to teach my 3rd child (due next month) sign language as a toddler to facilitate her communication. We went through a lot of frustration with trying to understand my son’s needs, and it would be good if our daughter could express herself with sign language even before she learns to talk.

I think it would be neat to teach this to my 2 year old and eventually my second daughter who is just 12 days old right now! I have always seen and read about the signing but never tried it. =)

and i would love to win this book! i want my 8mo daughter to learn some asl for 2 reasons. 1- i would love to be able to communicate with her now since she is already so opinionated and independent! and 2- her cousin has down syndrome and is deaf so he can pretty much only communicate through asl and i would love for her to be able to communicate with him.
thanks so much for the great website- i am using your tutu tuturial today!
I would love to try out this method w/the book, I have a 15m old that does nothing but scream on and off all day long If I only could find out what was wrong, what he needs It would help us both.

I would love to try to ASL with my one year old son. I think that this book is a wonderful idea and if would help for him to communicate and speak sooner, this would be wonderful. Thanks.

I would like to try ASL because my son is having a really hard time communicating and it is very frustrating for both of us.
I get your feed.
I would like to learn more. My son learned a few signs through day care, and it has made life so much easier. I have also started using flash cards so he can point to what he wants. I review the word with him after he points to the picture.

I just subscribed to your feed! I’ve tried using sign language with my daughter, but could use some more tools!

We taught my daughter some signs – and she still uses some of them, at 27 months old (today!) while she is saying the words. It really helped us communicate with her-I wish we had taught her more! This book would be for my SIL who is due with her 3rd boy in October, thanks!
