“My Family - Inside My Home” Signs Recap 💜
Milo’s recap of our starter signs from last week seemed to be quite popular, so I thought I’d give it another go with this week’s theme. Unfortunately, Milo is absolutely full of cold, bless him, so wasn’t really feeling it and a few of the signs are a little half-hearted and less accurate than they might have otherwise been.
SO, I have also added, after Milo’s clip, a second clip of his 3 older siblings recapping our core family signs - which has actually proved to demonstrate really nicely how signing will develop and be honed over time, as dexterity and focus improve.
Notice how Charlie (3) still has some inaccuracies, while Jacob (6) sometimes has to process and think slightly longer before signing (mostly) correctly, but Lily (8) signs almost perfectly with instant reaction. Signs can take time to be perfected, but with context, even very early versions can still enable that connection and communication when we are able to recognise the attempts 🥰
I’m Amanda, a TinyTalk baby signing teacher in the Sudbury area, using BSL signs to help local families communicate with their little ones. We believe communication starts with connection. Your connection with your baby starts before your baby is born, and true communication can begin as early as the first time you hold your baby in your arms.
I still have some spaces in both of my classes for the remainder of the Summer term - if you would like to know what YOUR baby wants to tell you, get in touch to book your spot 💜
