Baby sign language
Ever thought about talking with your baby to know exactly what s/he wants? Like most parents, I certainly have! It would be really cool and a big time saver if I can somehow communicate with little Greg so I want to give this sign language thing a try. Up until now, I’ve read some books on this topic but didn’t feel that “connection”. Allow me to briefly talk about a book called The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Baby Sign Language. Unlike other books, the author Diane Ryan doesn’t try to cram information down your throat. She briefly talks about what it is and what isn’t and goes right into the meat of describing how parents communicate with their babies with simply hand gestures. I also like the fact that all signs are part of the ASL or American Sign Language which is the official language of the deaf people in the US.
I will post some highlights of the book as well as a progress report to give you a first-hand look in the near future.
