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
