Have you ever looked at your newborn baby, and wondered why are you crying so much today? I think all parents have. Now there is a new way to communicate with your child at a very early age. Babies as young as 6 months old can learn to do baby sign language. This can be very helpful to you and your newborn through the early stages of your child's life.
Baby signing can improve your baby's language and communication skills, therefore increasing your baby's IQ. Teaching baby signs to your baby can help reduce tantrums and strengthen the parent/baby bond which will lead to more confidence and higher self-esteem. Your baby will be able to tell you when they are hungry or thirsty, and if they want orange juice or milk for breakfast.
Your baby will naturally try to communicate with you from birth, and will start almost as soon as they are born with eye contact, and after that, facial expressions. By teaching baby signs to your newborn you will be giving him the basic tools to communicate in a meaningful way. By six months babies can develop the motor skills needed to make signs and by 7-8 months your babies memory will have developed enough to use these signs consistently. Normally once your baby learns the first few signs, they will pick up n the next ones more quickly. Another question alot of people have is if the baby is using signs all the time, will it delay their speech? Experts say that the opposite is true, and it actually speeds up the speech process. Knowing what i know now about Baby Sign Language, i think it should be something that every parent would want to consider.
