We made a point of doing the whole baby sign thing with both kids, and they picked it up very well. The girl has over 30 signs now, and it’s so fun! More than that even, I truly believe that it helps them to communicate earlier and understand the concept of communication. Here’s a list of what we’ve seen her do so far (if I was more talented I could put this in columns, but I’ve tried and failed):
- More
- Eat
- Drink
- Water
- Milk
- Daddy
- Brother
- Rabbit
- Dog
- Cat
- Bird
- Bear
- Baby
- Shoes
- Help
- Book
- Flower
- Ball
- Music
- Fish
- Lion
- Water
- Giraffe
- Gorilla
- Fruit
- Hat
- Bath
- Cow
- All Done
- Squirrel
- Light
- Fan
And here she is, showing off a few. I love her expression when she does “baby” — it’s so adorable!

I love when she does gorilla and says “ooh, ooh!” I’m posting this to Facebook; I know it’s going to be a hit. 🙂

Rats! I can’t figure out how to post this to my site without linking back to your blog. I don’t think you’d care to have my friends read your work. Unless…you would. Let me know.
