This whole month of May, which happens to be Better Hearing and Speech Month, I have been sharing with you all many posts that go over the many benefits of signing to your infant and toddler. I hope you all have enjoyed these posts as much as I have enjoyed sharing them with you! One of my favorite sign language products on the market are the DVDs by Signing Time! In fact, I love their products and curriculum so much that I became a certified Baby Signing Time instructor so I can share my love of signing with other parents!
So…to celebrate Better Hearing and Speech month and to celebrate hitting the 1000 fan mark on my Facebook Page…we are going to do a giveaway! There are two prizes up for grabs…Volumes 1&2 in the Baby Signing Time

I would love to learn how to teach my 5th baby signing, because I have never done it before with my other children.
I would like to learn how to sign so that I can sign with my next child, I think it is an excellent way to communicate with your child.
I would love to win this! I would use it as a resource to educate parents on signing with their children as well as a tool to use with my preschoolers with little to no langauge!!
I think sign language is a great way to communicate with your child, plus it’s also fun!
I love signing for so many reasons! One new reason I just noticed is that it is strengthening my children’s fine muscle coordination–I love watching their little fingers learn to move independently!
Thanks for hosting an amazing giveaway!!

I did a little bit of sign with my first daughter and would love to do more with my second.
Signing is such a fantastic way to communicate! It is great for the younger ones, especially those with speech or language impairments, as it helps them communicate their wants and needs. It also helps them work on their fine motor movements.
I would love to learn more sign language to hopefully implement some of these signs with my caseload!
Thank you for such a great giveaway!

I love using sign with my 0-3 kids who are late talkers, it opens up a whole new world to them and their parents!!!
As a pediatric SLP & an expectant first time mom, I would love to learn to sign again w/ my baby & also for all my patients.
I would love to learn more signs for my nonverbal or apraxic kids
I love giving families the gift of communication through sign! And I’d love to have this available to loan to families just learning sign! Great giveaway Katie!
I would love to win the Signing Time DVD’s to use with families I work with as a Speech-Language Pathologist. It would be great to have DVD’s to be able to loan out to parents to help reinforce the sign language I use in my sessions. Thanks for offering such a cool giveaway & congrats on hitting the 1,000 mark on Facebook 🙂 I love your blog and share posts from it frequently on my OMazing Kids page.

I have a 12 month old and this would be perfect! We do not have any signing resources yet.
I tried to leave a comment through in order to enter the contest but it wouldn’t let me so I’m doing it down here. I actually do sign language with a blind, nonverbal child. He also has sensory integration disorder, a lot going on! I have taught him two signs so far and he is gaining some independence doing the signs rather than hand-over hand assistance. How great is it that he can express his wants/needs?! i’m sure his parents are proud, as am I. it also makes me feel good that I’m doing something to enhance his communication.
I find that signing with my young children has been a huge benefit…
it helps when they are too young to speak, as well as when we are in quiet places such as a waiting room or in church and I know other people appreciate that the children are quiet! Would love to win this for a more formal type of signing…we’ve just sort of made up some of our own combined with ASL.
Just found your blog tonight. We just started signing time with my older girls last week in our homeschool. Would love these for my little 10 month old guy!

i am trying to sign with my 8 mo old to make our house a more peaceful one 🙂
I need to get the videos again. I like signing with Viv, but I quickly forget signs. And she only does 1-3 signs. i need to work on consistency! but i love the Signing Videos. It makes me happy when they show the songs on Nick Jr
We LOVE the signing time videos. They taught my whole family how to sign!! Now we need some for our little one (we checked them out from the library before).

We’ve seen how great it is with our nephew — was so helpful before he could talk — and definitely want to teach our little girl, who’s due in August!
I have a few of the regular signing time videos, but none of the baby ones yet…but I didn’t have a baby when I started getting into them! With a deaf child in the house (granted, with cochlear implants, so he hears too), signing is a big part of life, and anything to help introduce my newest is great!

I’d love to learn so I can teach my LO to communicate when he can’t speak some of his favorites yet.
I would love to win these! There are so many benefits of using sign language with our youngsters!
I would live to win my two year old was taught signing at daycare and it has really helped since he has few words he can verbalize. I am due in Aug with #2 and would love to teach from earlier on and more signs.
I love the posts on teaching children to sign! I’ve always wanted to teach my little one to sign. This would be perfect! I only recently discovered your blog and I’ve really enjoyed reading old posts on how to help children become more verbal. Great to use with my 2 mo. old!
