♥Infant Signing. [begining @ 13wks old]
posted on Thursday, December 3, 2009.
I'm going to begin teaching Daxton Sign Language tomorrow starting with the words 'milk' and 'potty'. I will be using the potty gesture for his diaper changings because it seems like it would be easier for him to learn than the gesture for 'change'. Vincent knew about 15 signs when he was a baby, but i hadn't started signing with him until he was about 6 months old, so it wasn't until about 8-10 months before we actually started seeing results. I'm hoping that by starting gestures this early with Daxton that by atleast 6 months old he will be using the signs that hes been taught daily. The plan is to save us alot of frustration through easy communication and being able to understand what he wants. Sign language helped me a great deal with Vincent and with his first sign being the word 'more' it came in handy.
