1stAnnual Baby Signs Fair 2007

1st Annual Baby Signs Fair

Because of all of your support, the 1st Annual Baby Signs Fair was a HUGE success! The response from the community was tremendous. There were 113 people signed up for the Fair. I could only accommodate 50 guests. And it turned out that our room was still too small for everyone. I did learn that I need to take into consideration space for the couples (both parents). I was very excited to see daddies actually participating in class. Whooohooo! I enjoyed meeting everyone and it seem like everything went by soo fast. I have review the evaluations and I can't wait to make the next Baby Signs Fair bigger and better. I look forward to providing more services to the community like this one. If you were in attendance, please take some time to give us your testimony about the event.

Bubbles during bathtime

A great way to make bathtime fun is to incorporate bubbles. You can blow the bubbles right into the tub with your little one and then show them the sign. Most all kids are fascinated with bubbles.

Remember to engage your child in the learning experience by following their lead.

Ivania and Mitch with Mathew


Your child is never too young to learn Baby Signs. Mathew is only 8 months here and his parents are already engaging him in the Baby Signs experience. I started with my own son at 4 months. Keep in mind that the earlier you start the longer you may have to wait to see that first sign depending on your child's development.

Eric and Teresa with Oliva


Mom and dad can engage their children in pretend play by using objects and toys around the house. This not only gives you a chance to practice the signs, but also helps with developing your child's vocabulary.

It is so nice to see fathers participating in signing with their children. Moms continue to encourage daddy to get involved with signing. The more people that encourage your little one, the more successful they will be.
