Critical Reviews

"Lane continues to amaze me with her ability to connect with such a wide audience--parents, caregivers, and educators--to help little ones communicate through signs before they can even utter spoken words! Detail oriented and organized perfectly to match the needs of a growing baby, this book teaches through day-to-day activities, songs, and popular children's books. This is a must-have on baby registries and perfect for anyone working with children."--Ella Owens, M.S., CCC-SLP, CAGS-ASD

"Even if you are brand new to sign language, Lane Rebelo's clear descriptions and joy-filled tips for memorizing will make it easy for you to learn and implement the most useful signs with your child right away! It's not just for fun; sign language bolsters social-emotional skills, strengthens the intellect, and gives your little one essential nonverbal communication strategies that will make those toddler years much easier for you both."--Aubrey Hargis, author of Baby's First Year Milestones and Toddler Discipline for Every Age and Stage

"This book has the most practical ways to use signs with children. It dives into how to use them in routines and every day life. Most importantly, this book teaches about feeling words and how to use them. It is so important for little ones to have language to express their emotions, as it can eliminate so many emotional meltdowns. What I also love about Lane's new book is that she teaches the reader to start with the individual child's interests."--Jill Vetstein, MSW, LICSW, CEIS, owner and founder of Nurturing Parents and Teachers
