How frustrating is it when you don't know what your child wants? Of course a lot of the time a Mother or Father can figure out pretty quickly what their baby is trying to say but sometimes there's just no way to tell through the tears and the screaming. What if I told you your child could tell you what they wanted with sign language.

Sign language is a language that babies can pick up quickly and easily to explain to you what they really want or need. They naturally express themselves with their hands and face already. Throwing their hands up when they are excited or happy; or pointing to something they are trying to figure out or want. They just have to know the proper sign for what they want and they'll put it to use once they realize you actually understand what they want now.

Could you imagine your baby telling you that they are thirsty? Not only just thirsty but that they would like water instead of milk or juice? Yep, they would be able to do that. They can even tell you what color shirt or socks they want to wear. They will be able to distinguish, for you, between colors! The tears you will save on both of your parts will have you signing happy in no time.

I've taken a lot of courses for American Sign Language and I'm well aware that there is a large community of people out there that speak this language. If your child continues to learn sign language they will have a wonderful form of communication with a large population of deaf and hearing people who use sign language. In fact they might make a career down the road out of interpreting for the deaf or teaching in a deaf school or tons of other possibilities that are not open to a lot of people in this world.

You may wonder if learning sign will delay your child's speech. Don't worry about that. Kids can pick up two or three different languages while they are young. Just because you speak English and Italian in the house doesn't mean they will only pick up one language. Plus you will most likely naturally speak while signing to them so they will hear and see what the sign means.

Sign is the only language they will be able to effectively use before their verbal language comes in. They will have a huge advantage when it comes to communicating with you!

I have seen lot of babies who don't start talking till they are around 18 months. Imagine how much you will know about your baby if you use sign language the first 18 months of their life and beyond.

Why wouldn't you want to understand their baby as soon as possible? Learn how to teach you baby over 250 real signs at signing for babies and wow yourself and your family and friends at how fast your child will pick up the signs.
