Getting to share the benefits of baby sign language with new mom, Nichelle Medina, on News 8 was a lot of fun! We all had to get up EARLY but none of the babies seemed to mind. I even taught the news anchor's baby, Ellie, the sign for LIGHT! I can tell she is eager to communicate just in the way she observes everything around her.
Take note that I share the signs most parents are interested in teaching their baby, and then I also share signs that are actually better to start with in order to entice your baby to communicate with you through sign language.
All of the babies that joined us on this news segment are Sign4Baby Graduates, meaning they have completed 2 unique 6 week curriculums where parents learn not just ASL vocabulary, but tips and tricks to get faster results in signing. Parenting tips are shared in each week's themed signs to help transition through toddlerhood.
