Baby Sign Language

Babies seem to understand their surroundings more than they can express them. It makes sense since they are still learning to speak. But what if there is an easier way to communicate than speaking. Just like we, adults, when traveling to a new country where we don't speak the language, we would use ... yes, the sign language.

Luke, our baby knows how to clap when he likes what he sees, makes a cross with his fingers when he sees a cross. And we know he wants to tell us more, but unable to ... which results in some frustration on his part, and maybe ours as well.

I just saw this amazing video on a baby who has learned a sign language, from My Smart Hands. I was wondering if anyone else has the same success, or has any other thoughts on teaching their babies the sign language.



There are some basic sign language for babies available at Signing with Your Baby.
