Intro to Baby Sign Language - ONLINE Virtual
May 17, 2024 - May 17, 2024
ONLINE
 
Stop guessing what your baby is trying to tell you and start spending more time fulfilling your child's specific needs. Baby Sign Language gives parents the opportunity to communicate with children long before babies can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing with babies accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration and aggressive behavior, and as children mature, results in a greater interest in reading. Out of all the wonderful benefits of baby sign language, the most important benefit of all is that signing will greatly deepen the bond between you and your child.

What you will learn

Happy 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!

Sustainable Diapering Class Virtual
May 21, 2024 - May 21, 2024

REDYPER™ San Francisco hosts this workshop for parents who are interested in learning more about the different diapering options and the pros and cons of each. Unfortunately, the world of diapers is full of overwhelming choices and misleading information. After this class, you will have the information you need to understand the environmental and health impact of the diapers you choose for your baby.

Join panelist Molly Ressler of REDYPER™ San Francisco, a compostable diaper service here in the Bay Area, to learn about the 4 primary diapering options:

- (EC) Elimination Communication
- Cloth diapers
- Conventional disposable diapers
- Plant-based disposable diapers (with and without a composting service)

You will become aware of the pros and cons to each of these approaches and the impact each method has on the environment and on your baby’s skin and development.

All attendees receive a free 4-week trial, 50% off a New Baby Intro Pack*, and a special thank you gift with their first order!

There are so many new choices to be made in preparation for the arrival of your new baby – we want this choice to be an easy one. This webinar aims to leave you equipped with the knowledge to confidently select the right diapering option for your family.

*New Baby Intro Pack includes 2 packs of DYPER™ diapers, 2 packs of DYPER™ wipes, and 1 roll of compostable collection bags. This offer is not to be combined with other offers. New customers only. Must be within REDYPER™ SF's delivery zone to redeem.
