NEW YORK—May 23, 2017—Morgan James’s new release, Signs of a Happy Baby: The Baby Sign Language Book by William White and Kathleen Harper, lets parents communicate with their children before they ever learn how to speak.
Babies begin to develop motor skills before they develop language. For this reason, they are able to learn sign language before they ever learn to speak, thus allowing them to communicate their needs and desires before they are ever able to verbalize them. Teaching sign language to infants and toddlers has become more and more common, though many parents don’t know where to start.
Signs of a Happy Baby: The Baby Sign Language Book is a guide for parents looking to teach their little ones sign language. With a comprehensive sign language dictionary and easy to follow photos, Signs of a Happy Baby offers practical instructions with easy implementation, allowing parents to quickly make sign language part of their daily activities.
This early communication allows infants to vocalize what is upsetting them, whether it be that they are hungry or hurting, or if they want milk or a snack, making way for easier understanding and thus cutting down on tantrums. Additionally, learning sign language jumpstarts verbal communication as well and increases cognitive function. Parents will love being able to better soothe their infants and toddlers needs and their children will be quicker satisfied while being all around happier. Signs of a Happy Baby is practically and emotionally beneficial to parents and their children alike.
