PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
Why are thousands of hearing parents signing with their hearing babies? According to a long-term study at UC Davis, funded by the National Institutes of Health, signing babies:
  • Talk sooner and have larger vocabularies
  • Have stronger parent/child bonds
  • Have less frustration, crying, and tantrums
  • Show more interest in books
  • Engage in more sophisticated play
  • Have increased IQ scores
  • Have higher self-esteem
And, signing gives parents a window into their child’s mind and personality.

In Baby Sign Language Basics, parents will learn 60 baby-friendly American Sign Language signs. Baby-specific signing techniques, songs, and games are included to make learning fun and easy, and also open up two-way communication quickly. What parent doesn’t want to know what their baby is trying to tell them?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR VIEW AUTHOR'S WEB SITE
Monta Briant first discovered baby sign language when she was expecting her first child. She began signing with her daughter, Sirena, when she was 6 months old, and was so impressed with the results that she felt compelled to share what her family had learned with other parents and caregivers of young children.

Monta offers classes, workshops, and storytimes throughout San Diego County. Her Baby Sign Language Basics series of products includes everything parents need for signing success, including several books, an instructional DVD, flash cards, and the Songs for Little Hands Music CD and Activity Guide.
