Babies Can Talk (Sign to Speak)

With a new and comprehensive approach designed to help parents and caregivers sign successfully with hearing babies, this book features American Sign Language and its vocabulary and concepts. Specific and age-appropriate information is provided along with more than 100 signs that allow babies to clearly express their wants and needs with their hands. Parent-child communication frustrations can be greatly reduced through this language skill, supported here through simple instructions, effective baby signs, practical advice, clear photographic demonstrations, and baby signing activities. Additionally, research and theories supporting the benefits that hearing babies and their families receive from signing are provided.
