Overview
Children are able to communicate by signing before they develop the skills necessary for speech. By teaching simple sign language to children from as young as eight months, we can help them to convey their emotions and their needs. When children begin to talk, having sign language to fall back on provides a comforting safety net. Add to the fun of signing by singing well-known nursery rhymes and songs. Even proficient speakers will long enjoy signing to a favourite song or rhyme. Simple and clear signing instructions allow anyone to join in.Editorials
Publishers Weekly
The Sign and Singalong board book series launches with a quartet of titles that use popular nursery songs to teach sign language: Baa Baa, Black Sheep; Itsy Bitsy Spider; Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear; and Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, all illustrated by Annie Kubler. In the first book, a stuffed toy black sheep makes the rounds of adorable babies from many cultures as they demonstrate signs for the words "black," "sheep" and the number "three," among others.
