Five Reasons to Take a Baby Signing Class

Wondering if you want to take a class? Here are some reasons that might help you make up your mind:

Everyone learns best with a coach or mentor!

Think back to when you learned to drive a car. You had been a passenger in a car, you probably read the driver’s manual, but it was very helpful to have an experienced driver there to offer you support and suggestions when you first slide behind the wheel! Learning the basics of signing with a baby is pretty easy. However, learning to sign with a professional baby sign language educator dedicated to teaching the best strategies for signing with your baby will make the learning process easier. It will be so much less stressful as you get the help you need to get it right the first time! By attending you will have so many helpful experiences, don’t pass up the opportunity for one-on-one coaching and mentoring.

Get instant feedback on your own signing!

Signing is a motor skill that you learn just like swimming or riding a horse. If you practice the sign incorrectly you will have a difficult time breaking your bad habits. Let a professional help you get it right from the very beginning!

Share the experience with alike minded people!

Everyone that you meet in your class will have a common goal: to learn how to effectively communicate with their babies before they can speak, using American Sign Language. Many on-going support groups and even sign supportive baby sitting co-ops have been formed by participants in workshops and classes.

Enhance your sign language vocabulary!

With access to a baby sign language expert you will be able to learn the signs that you might not find in the SIGN with your BABY™ book. Everyone needs to know the signs for special holidays and celebrations, or what if your baby’s favorite fruit is papaya? You will be in luck-you will have access to a human sign language dictionary!

Experience the fun of learning activities designed specifically for you!

Parents, educators or caregivers who are currently signing with babies and young children will be exposed to music, games and toys that are designed to stimulate the learning process for babies and the adults who are signing with them. These activities will provide you with interactive and creative ways to incorporate signing into your daily life!
