Bamba’s First Comforts Sign Language Kit has been reviewed by Heather Chambers at www,totology.co.uk and says “Bamba takes educational toys to a whole new level. The kit, which has been designed by speech and language therapists, not only teaches your baby to communicate, but helps them understand what you’re saying to them as well. Designed for use with 6-12 month olds, this approach can be used from birth and is a fun way to play and interact with your child, while teaching them something new.
Each piece of the kit corresponds to a basic sign. There’s a bottle for ‘drink’, spoon for ‘food’, blanket for ‘bed’, wash cloth for ‘bath’, mirror for ‘look at me’ and monkey for ‘playtime’. By using each item as you make the sign, babies quickly learn to understand what you’re saying and use the same signs back to ask for what they want. Who’d have thought a 6 month old baby could ask to be put to bed without crying? And because Bamba products are developed by speech therapists you don’t have to worry that signing could get in the way of your baby learning to talk. Signing encourages understanding of words which can actually help babies get those vital first words out earlier. Comes with a parent guide book to get you started.
