1) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time! Volume 1 DVD by Two Little Hands Productions. At the suggestion of another mom, I purchased Baby Signing Time, Vol. I. It´s great! My 18 months twins girls love it. My girls were 26.1 week preemies and although they are exceeding in every other developmental area, they are a little behind on their verbal skills. We are hopeful the video will encourage their verbal skills.
They have quickly picked up on a number of signs. Sometimes it doesn´t seem they are actually getting them, but then they will use them unexpectedly hours later! I have also taught my girls a few more signs. Already at 18.5 months/15 months adjusted, Abby is signing "more book" when she wants me to read a book to her. They also use eat and drink to ask for food or indicate hunger.
The words taught are: eat/food, drink/cup, all done, cracker, milk, juice, dog, cat, fish, horse, frog, bird, more, mommy, daddy, grandma, grandpa, hurt/pain, baby.
I do wish it taught want (as in "I want") and please and thank you. I suspect they are on other videos.
I definately recommend the Signing Time video - the earlier the better!¤ 2) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time! Volume 1 DVD by Two Little Hands Productions. We bought this DVD for our 13 month old. He absolutely loves it. It is simple and direct with just the right amount of fun. It makes learning the basic signs so simple. My son loves to watch all of the babies making signs and also loves the music. I find the music entertaining as well. The last song on the DVD is about "owies" and it is so sweet. I tear up when I hear it. I highly recommend this DVD to children who are not yet speaking.

Texas¤ 3) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time! Volume 1 DVD by Two Little Hands Productions. This is a wonderful product, much better than other products that are out there.. the song makes it easier for the parent to remember and reinforce the signs.. it is easy to watch, and does not get irritating or annoying.. what this product did for my son is provide him with a huge vocabulary boost.. When Ms. Rachel signs the new sign, she also says it, my son did the same thing, and would immediately apply it to everyday life.. I have brought it to my son´s daycare and they have thoroughly enjoyed it and purchased their own set, as have most of the parents that I know based on how much their child learned, quickly and started to apply.¤ 4) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time! Volume 1 DVD by Two Little Hands Productions. I don´t know sign language, but these words/signs are very easy for you and for baby. We have been using the video for about a month since my kids were 5 months. They enjoy watching/listening to the video. I have learned the signs and have tried to implement them in to my day-to-day activities. The songs are really cute and up beat - the colors are bright - and Rachel is very animated. I cannot compare these to the "original" DVDs, but we really like these. Public TV has a Signing Time series - you can view that to get an idea of whether you might like the idea or not (although "baby" signing time is slightly different - but close enough).
I recommend this DVD. I plan to purchase the "regular" DVD series going forward.¤ 5) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time! Volume 1 DVD by Two Little Hands Productions. In general I am against using TV for small children, but I have seen this work with my niece - allowing her to express herself before she can pronounce the words - and in this case I´m making an exception for my own son. It reduces frustration and it´s fun. I don´t think this short video will be harmful and I would venture to suggest that any potential ´harm´ is vastly outweighed by the good of enhanced communication and reduced frustration. I would suggest two things: 1) Hold off until your child is eating solid foods or many of the signs will be meaningless to them. 2) Don´t try to force your child to watch. If they´re not ready then they´re not ready. Put it on in the background anyway so you can learn the signs and use them, too. Maybe your child will get the benefits without ever having to watch him/herself! Overall it´s a great product. I highly recommend it.¤ 6) DVD DVD Baby Signing Time!
