Baby Sign Language
It’s late at night and your baby refuses to stop bawling and go to sleep. You know your baby wants something but you just can’t figure out what. After hours of tears and screams, your exhausted baby finally drifts off to sleep, leaving you frustrated and feeling guilty about causing him so much sorrow. How many times have you encountered this scenario?
Babies cry largely because they want their needs to be met. Problem is baby can’t tell you what he wants so he will keep crying until you meet his need. However, teaching your baby sign language can help you communicate with your baby and minimize tears.
Mum and Dad are the single most important influence on a young child’s life. It is Mum and Dad who are the primary educators of the little life, at least up until five years of age, and many would argue even beyond school age. What goes on at home, particularly in the area of language development, has a significant bearing on whether the child will survive, dive or thrive in the school environment.
Baby toys need to be durable, comforting and stimulating all at the same time. This is one of the reasons that stuffed animals that can also recite the alphabet are so popular. They can stand up to great abuse, they can be cuddled with and that alphabet song will keep your child entertained for hours.
