Developed with the help of Speech and Language experts and launched in January 2001, the "Sing and Sign" programme has since taught many tens of thousands of parents across the UK how to sign with their babies and encourage amazing early communication.

As a part of typical development before speech is well established, babies naturally use a combination of gestures and sounds to help their parents understand them. For example they may point, shake their heads, clap their hands and wave "bye-bye". Now is a good time to introduce some extra gestures to help your baby communicate. It's easy to do and your baby will really enjoy it! Why not try milk, more, change nappy, or tired? Baby signing is wonderfully rewarding and fantastic fun. You will be amazed by what your baby is capable of telling you before being able to talk!

Signing benefits include:
Helping to understand your baby's needs, thoughts and ideas
Reducing frustration (for baby and parent!)
Enhancing early vocabulary and understanding
Encouraging the development of speech
Enriching your baby's relationships
Building confidence and self-esteem
Stimulating your baby's intellectual and emotional development
