My First Signs (Baby Signing) (BSL) (Baby Signing)

Found the book really useful as a simple introduction into signing for babies and young children. However don't buy from here go to the makaton website as the book is much much MUCH cheaper.

This is a wonderful book, withn a few days we were signing. Very easy to understand and learn.

This is the best baby signing book in the UK market. The illustrations are very sweet. Every picture describes the sign beautifully and is completely in context. Your baby will learn to "read" the signs with the pictures. What a lovely early introduction to books. It's also fun to share together.

My daughter adored this book still does after several years now. I recommend this book to everyone I teach signing to. It's the simplist, clearest and best value baby signing book available.

My baby twins have just turned one, and after half hearted attempts at signing with them for the past few months, they have just started joining in! It is so amazing to realise that they really understand even though they are so tiny, and already it's stopping tantrums when i know what they're actually asking for. This week they were able to ask their Grandma for milk! They love being understood and are really proud of their achievements. The book itself is brilliant, really good to look at, and easy to understand; the babies enjoy sitting and 'reading' it... having now been totally converted to baby signing, I'm ordering the rest of the set, and am determined to do more with them. Commend the BSL approach, as it makes sense to give them a basis with which to communicate with others later in life, rather than use ASL, effectively a `foreign' language. Highly recommended.

For just under £5 this book gives you everything you need to start signing with your baby. It is quite a large board book and has drawn pictures of babies doing the signs in it. Next to the picture are written instructions on the movements necessary. I can only recommend it.
