When can I begin to sign?
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010 How to get your baby to use baby signing
Friday, April 17th, 2009Try not to have any background noise (so for example turn off the TV ) when you are playing with Bamba’s First Comforts. Babies love the undivided attention
Let Bamba show your baby a toy from the box. Make the corresponding sign as you say the word. Repeat the sign and the word. Allow your baby to choose a toy and again make the sign and say the word. Be guided by your baby’s interest.
When your baby vocalises (makes a noise when you present a toy) say “that’s right ……..(sentence referring to toy eg “I’m thirsty)” and repeat sign.
When your baby signs , again say “that’s right ………..(sentence referring to toy eg “I’m thirsty)” and repeat the sign. You’re now baby signing.
