Learning Little Signs: Introduction to baby signing
Alek Lev

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Learning Little Signs teaches parents how to use elements of American Sign Language to communicate with their infants and toddlers. Signing with your kids allows them to express their wants and needs at an early age, can increase their English language proficiency, and will help develop both their visual and motor skills. Parents will learn signs that they can use from morning until night, including vocabulary for waking, playing, changing, eating, and sleeping, along with colors, foods, animals, emotions, questions, letters, and numbers. The course can be taken as a single class or in a discounted set of three classes. Go to www.LearningLittleSigns.com where you can register, read a complete course description, and find a calendar of upcoming classes.
