Baby Sign Language



I have an email that comes to me each week called Baby Center newsletter (I think that's what its called) Anyway, it's a week by week update on how my baby should or could be developing. It also talks about baby safety, baby sickness, being a mom, just a bunch of stuff. I actually started to get it when I was pregnant. Week by week it talked about the developing baby. Well, every week at the end of the email there is always something funny and I thought this baby sign language was cute. Elley has all of these signs down....especially the "please change my diaper" sign. Hope you all enjoy this as much as I did!!!!

Your baby can learn sign language!

Here's how to say:

• "Please change my diaper": Turn beet red and make straining expression, then smile.
• "I'd like something to eat, please": Cram fist in mouth and suck wildly.
• "I'm tired": Make a series of weeping gestures before closing eyes and lolling head backward.
• "Please pass me that thing up there that I can't reach": Point and grunt, then continue pointing and open mouth into screaming position.
• "No thank you, I think I've had enough": Throw food or object to floor with exaggerated grin.
