Your baby has something to say! Jump-Start Your Child’s Verbal Skills!

​Baby Sign Language gives babies the opportunity to communicate long before they can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration, enhances a child’s self-esteem, and deepens the bond between parent and child.
Read comments from parents who rave about the classes.

This 90 minute workshop introduces more than 20 signs that are based on American Sign Language (ASL). It is designed for expectant parents and parents with babies ranging in age from birth to 18 months. You will learn about the latest research and all the tools to teach your baby to sign. Fun activities and songs will show you how easy it can be to integrate simple signs into your everyday routine to jump-start your child’s verbal skills.

Parents in our live program are amazed how their babies are using more than 100+ signs. It will blow you away what your baby has to say!

 

If you have any questions, please reach out to Kattria at kvdploeg@stanford.edu.

Looking forward to seeing you at the workshop!

Best wishes,
