Communicating with your Baby

You and your baby spend incredible moments together, from their first smile, their first coo, rolling over and the long awaited first word. Have you considered their first sign? It’ll be months before your baby will start talking and be able to communicate with you.

Think about it- your baby is crying uncontrollably and you are un able to calm them down. It only creates frustration for you both. After all the only way a baby can tell you that something is wrong or that they want something is by crying.

Wouldn’t it be nice if your baby was able to tell you that they were hungry, cold or needed a diaper change? With baby sign language this is possible!

At the age of 6 months when your baby starts waving bye-bye your baby is able to pick up the concept of sign language and its meanings. Unfortunately they won’t learn overnight, but with continuous teaching and patience you will soon be able to communicate with your baby!

A great baby sign language program that I personally recommend is Kindersigns. Kindersigns.com has several different programs available for teaching babies, toddlers, parents and daycares, etc.

Did you know that children who are able to communicate with sign language normally have an IQ of at least 10 points higher than one who doesn’t use sign language?

There are many benefits of teaching our hearing babies the use of sign language. Self esteem, confidence, sharper motor skills and more!

Baby sign language has become extremely popular as well as becoming a Kindersigns Baby Sign Language Instructor. If you have considered starting your own home business, love babies and the concept of baby sign language- this may be the right choice for you!

What better satisfaction than helping a parent better understand their child’s wants and needs.
