I really like this, but I wish each song was on a video by itself so we could go straight to it.
And I wish I could get this on a DVD so I and Kids could watch it together.
I love the music, it's so fun.
Thanks Ruth Glenn

Thanks for sharing your skills and giving us the opportunity to learn sign language. I am just learning for my 19 month old son who is speech delayed and this video is very easy to understand. The simple everyday words we use arent as difficult as i thought and are pretty easy to remember. I am glad i can download this for me to refer back to and I will be downloading more in hopes that this helps my little man communicate with us. THANKS AGAIN. By the way your daughter is adorable! :)

Below are the descriptions for each of the lessons included in the series:

• Make Baby Sign Language Flash Cards

  In this lesson, you will learn how to make your own set of baby sign language flashcards. Both the words and images are supplied in a pdf file for the front of the card. You will also receive, as part of this lesson, 30 pictures and descriptions of how to make the signs for each word supplied. All of the signs provided in this lesson are American Sign Language (ASL) signs. You can personalize these cards by adding your own photographs to the 'mommy', 'daddy', 'grandma', 'grandpa' and 'family' spots.
  This craft is fun and easy to do, the hard work is taken care of for you!

• Baby Sign Language - ASL Alphabet

  It is a really great thing to teach your baby the American Sign Language (ASL) alphabet. Babies and children tend to pick up sign language faster because of the visual letters that go along with the verbal letters. During the one minute preview you will see a 17-month-old baby singing and trying to sign the alphabet. Watch her hands as she tries to sign the letters. You will also see the same girl at age two, learning how to sign her letters. Her letters are much clearer now. She is also able to identify written letters because of her early exposure to both the sound and 'feel' of the letters. We take language in as a sound on the left side of our brains and we take sign language in as an image on the right side of our brains. This gives the child two places to recall the one word or letter. That is why it is so great to teach your child baby sign language using the ASL alphabet!

  Learn how to sign the American Sign Language (ASL) manual alphabet. In this lesson we will go through step-by-step instruction on how to sign each letter of the manual alphabet. I will give you easy memory hints to remember the letters. We will go through the alphabet slowly, together, in order for you to have the maximum amount of practice signing each letter. You will learn the manual alphabet in a fast and easy way. I hope you enjoy the lesson!

• Baby Sign Language - Alphabet Songs (American)

  In this baby sign language video lesson, you will see three different versions of alphabet songs. The preview gives you an example of what each video segment will teach you.

  The first segment is designed for children to practice their American Sign Language Alphabet. They can see the different hand shapes and sign and sing along with the song. We made the song slow enough for the child to be able to change and absorb each hand shape.

  The second segment is designed to teach the sounds the letters make. Once you learn the sounds of the letters you can then start to put together words. You can ask your child what does C (showing the letter c and having them sound it out), A, T spell - you can sound it out together as you go.

  The third segment teaches you the signs in the first alphabet song. At the end of this song I will go over how to make each sign.

  Each song has a chapter marker so you will easily be able to find the particular song you like.

  I hope you enjoy singing along to these songs!
