Routines are extremely important for small children, and with these easy-to-make signs, babies and toddlers can gain a better understanding of everyday, familiar events. The signs in Baby Fingers: All Day Long will take kids right from breakfast in the morning (“hungry!”) to bath and bedtime, with its “blanket” and “teddy bear.” Along the way, children will learn American Sign Language for “play,” “toys,” “share,” “park,” “bath,” and more. And that skill helps stimulate language development and good communication. For every word, a big, friendly photograph shows a young child clearly signing, and Lora Heller offers smart tips on how to encourage your toddler to join in.

That first wave “goodbye” is a developmental milestone for baby—and a big thrill for parents. So imagine the joy moms and dads will feel when they discover that babies and toddlers can interact with them using actual language…even before the children can speak! That’s the magic of introducing sign language early on: it allows even the very young child to communicate complex words and concepts. Baby Fingers: Hello, Goodbye presents the basic vocabulary children need to begin conversations. The simple phrases include “good morning,” “how are you?” “hug me,” “let’s go,” and one that will mean the world to every parent: “I love you.”

Baby Fingers: I Want is part of a collection of baby signing books by Lora Heller. It contains photos and instructions for "want, please, apple, juice, water, book, mommy, daddy, etc." Parents try to understand their children's needs and desires-but sometimes, they just can't figure them out. And that can lead to frustration for both the adult and the baby. Giving very young children the tools to express themselves can alleviate this unhappy situation-and make youngsters feel proud of themselves.

Imagine feeling happy, sad, or scared and not being able to tell anyone. That’s what it’s like for children before they’ve mastered language. Signing changes all that, and gives babies and toddlers the skills to understand their own emotions and to recognize ours. Kids’ self-esteem will soar as they perform these very simple gestures from Baby Fingers: I'm Feeling and convey the fact that they’re tired, curious, hurt, bored, surprised, or in a very silly mood. Whether their baby’s smiling and making the sign for “love” or gesturing to say he’s feeling ill, parents will feel grateful to know!

Children are known for speaking their minds. We can’t expect them to watch every word, but we can help them to understand that their words affect other people. Words Are Not For Hurting will help gently guide them to choose words that are helpful instead of hurtful, and to say two very important words—“I’m sorry”—when hurtful words come out before they can stop them.
