The Benefits of Teaching Babies Sign Language
Posted in sign language american | October 6th, 2009
Babies are capable of some extraordinary things like being able to sign as early as when they are a few months old. For example, there are many cases of babies being able to communicate in sign language at three months of age and signaling they need their diaper changed. At five months, babies can tell their parents when they want something, and at eight months, some babies can ask for milk. It has been said that early teaching of American Sign Language will help boost the child’s language development, both with spoken words and signs. The amazing thing is that often times neither the parents or the children are deaf. As I said, pretty extraordinary.
