We've begun a new adventure around our house and it's...Baby Signing!
I wanted to start signing with the girls because our therapist told us one day that especially with multiples, speech can be delayed for one and really strong for the other. Usually one multiple speaks first and then speaks for his/her sisters/brothers and so they become advanced where the other multiple becomes delayed. So baby signing can and hopefully will eliminate one multiple needing to speak for the other(s). Of course I will do whatever is best for each of the girls, so baby signing it was!
Also, I know so many families that it has worked for and it's just amazing what babies can learn and how fast they do!
So, it's been well overdue and finally I got around to borrowing some videos to sample from a friend before purchasing any.
We've been watching:
And...
It's taken me awhile to learn too...but it's something I really want to do and teach the girls! Any good hints or suggestions I should do/use for teaching the girls? I would be grateful, as I can barely remember each sign most of the time!!
Wish us luck!
