I bought this book when my daughter was 9 months old and started using it right away. She picked up the signs incredibly quickly and the amount of whining and pointing dramatically decreased. She's now 19 months and talks and only has a couple of signs she still uses, but at her age she's now asking to go "potty" on the toilet because we've been using the sign for 9 months to identify when she's obviously going in her diaper. Amazing. Buy this book if you have a baby and you will be so pleased!
An excellent resource for communicating with your infant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is ideal for parents of infants who want to enchance the ability to communicate precisely with their child before the child is able to vocalize. It contains simple and precise intstructions for teaching your child signs that they can use as early as 9 months old. It is basic enough for anyone -- you don't need experience with signing. The justification is clearly detailed, yet fun to read. The instructions for signs are clear as well. I found it much better than the similar book, "Baby Signs" in both content and instructions for making signs. If you or someone you know is interested in signing with their hearing child, this is the book for you!
