Tiny Talk Baby Signing

Babysigning is pre-verbal communication with your child: using visual clues (signs) before they can talk. These signs help babies make sense of the words that they hear as they look at things around them. They also begin to use them to tell you just what they want or what they are thinking about.

Baby signing gives children a way to express their needs before they are physically able to form spoken words. It gives them a structure on which to build their development of the spoken word.

At around 6 to 9 months old babies realise that things have names (vocabulary) such as 'Mummy', 'Daddy', cat, book, door etc. They also have good control of their hands to be able to make signs. The coordination of a baby's breathing, tongue, mouth and vocal cords, however, is not fully developed for words to be understood until 12 to 18 months old.
