It teaches you how to integrate baby and child signing into a baby/child's day to help them communicate before and after they speak or for deaf children, to learn in a fun way!

(Please note that Kiddisign E-courses are not produced by Sign2Me, but Kiddisign is a certified member of Sign2Me as a teacher/presenter)

And, for toddlers and older speaking children, it's like learning a new language - they love it and are able to utilise it to communicate to younger siblings or if they come across a hard of hearing or deaf child!!

You can use everyday soft toys from around the house or nursery to sign with the nursery rhymes but if you wish to purchase finger puppets or larger puppets for your child or for the nursery, then please visit a wonderful website at www.cambridgeeducationaltoys.com.
 

Why Sign?

From the moment babies are born, they start to communicate by using sound and natural gestures.

Kiddisign's eBook Course teaches you to sign in context and, in a child-like way, to help build on these gestures.

As the baby develops, she/he will then use both speech and signs as methods of communication. If the child becomes frustrated or has not learned to speak a certain word, they will use a sign, otherwise they will use speech first.

The vital connection between you and a baby or child depends on this communication. They will use extensive body language, facial expressions, and all sorts of verbal sounds to interact with you.

These movements and sounds will eventually evolve into language. But until they do, you may have to try and read their mind!

The muscles that allow speech to form take time to develop and this frustrates the child as it has many specific needs and thoughts to express!

One way for your child to express its thoughts is to use simple hand movements to communicate while the specific muscles for speech are forming.

Kiddisigns are always shown to an infant in context with speech and so speech is accelerated rather than inhibited. Speech would only be inhibited if signs were used instead.

Again, for speaking children, they are learning a new language and can help teach any younger siblings or communicate with any hard of hearing/deaf child.
