The interest in baby sign language has spread fast all across the Europe, USA and Canada in recent times. It’s one of the fastest movements in the 21st century and rightfully so.
Baby sign language is such a useful skill for parents and baby to know. It enables baby’s and parents to communicate with each other. It also enables baby’s to talk to caregivers and other people even those who aren’t immediately familiar with them. Sign language does not require you to “read” a baby – it merely requires that you understand the system of language used. Baby signing can include any system such as ASL, BSL, or any other. These signs are easily read from various resources.
If you haven’t already started to sign, or only just, than we definitely recommend you study resources surrounding signing to get a better feel for the techniques and difficulties that arise. By doing so, signing will become a pleasure instead of a task and you can be certain that you are teaching signing the most efficient way possible.
