What you will learnHappy Baby Signs' Introductory
Workshop introduces basic baby signs that are based on American
Sign Language (ASL) and is designed for expectant parents and
parents with hearing babies who range in age from birth to 18
months old. The workshop is an hour and a half long during which
information on the latest research on the benefits of signing with
babies will be discussed. Parents are taught useful tips on how to
train their babies to sign. Fun activities and songs will show you
how easy it can be to integrate these signs into your every day
routine and jump-start your child's verbal skills. This is a great
way to see what infant signing is all about without a major
commitment. Please join us with or without your baby!
