first (signed) word

Danny's first word: "chook-chook" (chicken)

watch him "say" it here:


we have done baby sign with all of our kids and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
it saves on so much frustration (which often leads to tantrums!) and gets them in a great habit of using their manners :)



our top signs have been:

please

thank you

more

all done

all gone

hot

bath

car

home

plane

chicken

cat

help

sorry

fish

  1. How cute! I tried baby signing for a little while, but probably not long enough... She has made up a few of her own, but maybe I will give it another go...

  2. Cute! I tired a little when Finley was tiny but he never really clicked to it, other than 'milk' and 'eat' (typical male thinking of his stomach). I think maybe I was too inconsistent. Definately going to give it more of a go with Archer though (currently concentrating on 'eat')... avoid some of those toddler-miscommunication-tantrums!!
