Friday, I was heading to the Bonita -v- Eastlake game, but it cancelled due to the rain. So, I went to the book store and sat in my usual spot. I saw and then heard a lady get REALLY frustrated with her baby because she wouldn't stop crying. The baby looked at her mom and just started crying louder!I put down my book and just wondered at what age babies "understood." I searched the aisle and found several books but chose this one to look at because I didn't need a doctoral dissertation on the matter, just something to see how difficult it would be to teach a child to sign.
I read the whole book, and figured the baby probably could have "told" mom what was wrong, if they had worked on some simple signs. If I'm ever a dad again, I'll be sure to try this out. Or, maybe...
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Baby Sign Language (More Info)
Do you think this really works?
I saw other people at the book store that were at the game. I got introduced to a friends mom and spoke a little Spanish, but ended up getting teased about it the next day.
