The Baby Signs® Program helps children develop both language and cognitive skills. Babies who sign are able to develop speech sooner and long-term studies show these early skills can translate into better grades.
The Parent Workshop is a one-time introductory class that teaches everything you need to know to get started with the Baby Signs® Program. You will learn:
- the history and research behind the Baby Signs® Program
- the benefits for you and your baby
- when to begin signing with your baby
- effective ways to teach signs at home and
- what to expect as your baby transitions from signs to speech
This class is geared towards adults and is recommended for expectant parents and parents and caregivers of children ages 0 to 2 ½ years or children who have difficulty communicating. Early childhood educators, parent educators, speech therapists, social workers and health specialists are also welcome to attend. Pre-registration is required.
