INFANT SIGN CLASS

Do you want a window into your infants or toddlers mind? A way to reduce frustration and temper tantrums? To have your child communicate using more than points, grunts and cries? An accessible and fun way to connect with your child? Then Signing Smart is for you! Research has shown that infants and toddlers who sign can begin communicating with signs as early as 4 to 6 months of age; and have a vocabulary of 300 signs and words by 18 months. These kids also learn spoken words as easily or easier than non-signers and show cognitive and linguistic advancements at age 4. During an 8-week interactive course for parents and their babies, you and your child will play, dance, sing, explore and more all while learning how to sign. Julie Buck, Park Hill resident and owner of Denver Family Consulting, is a certified Signing Smart instructor and will offering this course at the GPHC offices at 2823 Fairfax on Mondays from 4:45 to 5:30 beginning April 16, 2012.
