 I Love This Book and Video! March 12, 2000
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book and video kit are wonderful. The book is entertaining and easy to read. The video is very helpful in learning the signs and seeing other children who have learned to sign and hearing from their parents. I would definetely recommend spending the extra money for the entire kit! So far, my 8 month old has learned 2 signs, and I am eagerly awaiting more! Have fun with it.
The video is worth it February 24, 2000

I have been signing with my 9-month-old baby for about a month and a half and she is really catching on. I bought the complete learning kit and it was worth it. The book offers everything you need, but the video shows babies actually signing and offers great testimonials from the parents. It also has a video dictionary of the 54 signs on the quick reference guide. I have never signed before and I found it much easier to learn the signs from the video. This would make a great shower gift. The book only teaches 54 signs. You may find that you want another resource like an ASL dictionary, but it is not necessary.
reduce the crying and whining in your house! February 20, 2000

my 1 year old who is extremely verbal would get so frustrated when I didn't understand what he wanted, and after a few minutes would cry and whine until i finally figured it out. After teaching him simple signs, he only cries when he gets boo-boo's now! This is a must for any parent! Also, I was a little worried that he wouldn't talk if he knew how to sign, but as he gets more verbal, and learns to speak, he signs and says the word. So don't be afraid that your child will never talk and only sign, this is a tool to help children that want to communitate but aren't able to yet!
Thrilling! It really works! November 7, 1999

About a month ago, we ordered the "Complete Leaning Kit", which includes the book, companion video and sign language reference card. As recommended, we started in when baby was seven months old by demonstrating the signs for a few simple key words like "milk," "eat," "drink," "more," "finish," and "change," as in, "change your diaper." The signs are all very easy to make, and we both routinely repeated the signs several times in context to reinforce the associations.Fast forward to tonight: this evening we were at the mall doing some shopping for baby clothes when we happened to look down at baby seated in his stroller. He was making the "change" sign all by himself. A hoist and a sniff confirmed that he was right! It was time to change his diaper. A few minutes later he also signed "eat" to indicate he was hungry. He's also been making the "milk" sign for about a week at appropriate moments, and by eye direction and excitement level we know he also knows more words like "Mommy," "kitty," (we have a cat), and several others. I can't tell you how thrilling this is! If you have or are expecting a kid, or know someone else who is, you really ought to look into it!
Excellent resource for any caring parent. July 16, 1999

I recently read Joseph Garcia's book, "Sign with your Baby," and was very impressed. The book is laid out in a clear and easy to read manner, and is easily readable in one sitting. The concept of communicating through sign language with babies is fascinating to me, and Garcia does an excellent job of not only explaining it, but also getting the reader excited about signing. I recommend it!
