Baby Signing Times

So the other day Dylan and I are at the park playing. We met a little boy and his mom, who were very nice. The kids started playing and I noticed the little boy was signing to his mom, so I asked how many signs does he know? She said over 100! I was amazed. She said they've been watching some videos from the library called Baby Signing Times. So you know where our next stop was! I've been fascinated with sign language for quite some time now. We've taught Dylan some basic signs which she caught onto quickly and it's made communication much easier. So when this mom mentioned these videos I was very curious. I found a couple at the library and we started watching away. They are amazing! Not only has Dylan learned a bunch of new signs but so have Matt, Jill, and Myself! Jill and I learned over 26 signs in just one sitting. So now it's a signing frenzy over here at camp Clark - we're all throwing down signs to one another. I'm feeling a sign off coming on!!!!

Dylan knows the opening song by signs now from Baby Signing Times. This morning she woke up and her first words were baby as she was signing Baby running to the kitchen towards the computer. Very cute! I highly recommend the videos, they are a little corny but hey if you can learn 26 signs in one sitting corny works!


Here's Dylan signing Baby as she watches the opening of Baby Signing Times.

Here's Dylan signing Time.

And here she's signing Friend.

Auntie Beans joined in on the fun. She was amazed at how much she laughed and learned in just one sitting!

A serious learning moment.

Here's Dylan signing Food and I believe Jill is signing New.

Here's a video of Jill and Dylan signing the opening song from Baby Signing Times.
