Baby Signing
Baby signing is a type of non-verbal communication that babies, as young as six months, can use to communicate with their parents. The advantage is that you no longer have to play a guessing game about what your child wants, thinks or feels. In fact, your baby will be able to communicate much more to you than just his basic needs. They can say that they have seen a ‘duck’ in the pond or that they are glad it’s ‘bath’ time.
This is possible through sign language because babies gain control of their hands long before their control of their vocal chords and co-ordination of lip, tongue and teeth movements are ready to make understandable speech.
