The Fam

We’re going to try to teach the little guy some sign language. We’ve picked up some books put out by Sign2Me, which look to be very informative. For some reason, a lot of the other techniques on the market will teach your kids signs, but they aren’t based on American Sign Language. Sign2Me is based on ASL, so given how well any of us retain it, it might be a good introduction into learning full blown ASL.

There seem to be many benefits to signing, chief of which is the fact that the little guy will be able to communicate some of his needs before he can verbalize them. Anything we can do to reduce frustration on his part or our own is certainly worth looking into.
