What signs do we use?   The signlanguage that we use are similar to signs that are used in the deaf communities.  All young babies have limited coordinations and dexterity, we have subsituted some of the difficault signs to an easy symbol hand signs.  Thiese signs would not be a n second language however, it is to aid in early communication.  It does not matter what hand you or the baby uses the signs with left or right hand, your baby will naturally use their favorite hand to sign.  When using baby signs (BSL) it is  important to voice out the words when you use BSL to your baby, this would help to make it easier for your baby to understand what you are talking about by saying one word in each sentence with a simple baby language and by repetitions.  The signs we use will relate to feelings, objects, and other things.  Keep focusing on what your baby want to talk to you about.
