  • Used

Baby sign language has quickly become a national phenomenon garnering significant attention in the media and among child health experts. Simply put, baby sign language provides a way for parents to communicate with their hearing babies before they can speak. By teaching infants a few basic gestures or signs, parents are able to bridge the gap between the gurgling stage and the time when babies are actually able to talk.

This easy-to-follow book illustrates 150 of the most common and useful signs. Signing with your baby not only results in a happier and less frustrated child but, research shows, one who will speak earlier and have a higher IQ.

*150 of the most popular signs
*An express program for quicker results
*Games and activities to make signing more fun
