MCGHealth Baby Signs Program

Baby Signs logoDo you ever wonder what your baby is thinking?

Or why your baby is crying?
The Baby Signs® Program teaches babies to use simple, easy-to-do gestures for communicating with their parents and caregivers. These gestures or “signs” represent an item or concept, like “cat,” “eat,” or “all gone.”

Using signs gives babies a way to “talk” with their parents, before they can talk. Babies can communicate about the world around them, long before they have mastered their verbal speaking skills!

After 20 years of careful study, Baby Signs researchers proved that using signs actually enhances language, cognitive, and social-emotional development.
