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. Scholastic.com
Baby Signs has a retail value of $25.99, but can be purchased online for as little as $13.59 at Amazon.com
Recommended age - infant to preschool
Includes a mini poster with common baby signs.

What an adorable book! My daughter who is 2-years old, while a bit past the signing stage, adored Baby Signs. She enjoyed the 3-D illustrations and the fact that she can be hands-on by pulling the flaps to make the “babies” in the book act out the actual sign. Each sign allows the child to interact (by pulling the tabs) and shows the realistic movement, making it easy to learn and encourages your child to mimic the signs.
If you are considering having your children sign, I can tell you that this would be a great book to start with. Just after looking over the book two times with my daughter, she was already picking up the signs without me even showing her. We’ve seen other signing books in the past, but since they never actually showed the movement, I’m guessing that she didn’t understand what they were asking her to do. Which of course is my fault because I never took the time to explain. While I can’t give my opinion on signing as a whole, I will definitely tell you that this is a book that any child would enjoy.

Licorice!
I wish my two year old knew potty
I wish they knew the sign for diaper change
I also wish mine knew the sign for potty
Potty is a good one, so is I’m sleepy, or gimme some food/drink. This would make for an interesting read. Thanks for the contest!
It’d be great if my daughter knew how to sign “please”!
I’m a subscriber!
It would be great if they knew how to sign “hungry”. This book looks great. Thanks for sharing.
I wish she knew milk. We’re working on it though!

I wish they had a sign for why they aren’t feeling well. It shows in their tears and eyes….but where are they hurting?
I wish my little could sign for “my teeth hurt”. He’s bringing in teeth now ~ he’s great one moment and just crying the next.
i wish mine had known the word for juice he was a juice fanatic
