Baby Sign Language Introductory Workshop
Live Online or On-Demand
Your baby has something to say!
Jump-Start Your Child's Verbal Skills!
Baby Sign Language gives babies the opportunity to communicate long before they can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration, enhances a child's self-esteem, and deepens the bond between parent and child.
Parents in our live program are amazed how their babies are using more than 100+ signs. It will blow you away what your baby has to say!

"Lorelei has so many signs now it's hard to keep track! Thanks so much for introducing us to this wonderful way to communicate with our daughter."

"The live virtual sign language class is SOOOO good! I’m so looking forward to our next session. I’m grateful we can connect and learn with each other online!" ~ Sarah H. 💙💙💙

"On the Baby Sign Language front, Happy Baby Signs is the BEST sign language program ever. Thanks to them, the classes we took before our twins were born and during their early months paid off when they both started signing ASL at 9 months old! By 12 months, they had the basic signs we needed to communicate with them daily (milk, more, all done) plus some really fun ones (train, duck, bath).
They are now 2 years old but still signing a ton of words, which is great since one of our twins is not as verbal as the other, so signing has helped a lot on taming tantrums and communicating proactively to avoid frustration (in them, and in parents!).
I strongly recommend that all parents take the Introductory Workshop to Sign Language and then join the Sign Language Series as soon as they can. The more practice that parents can have with signing to each other and to their children, the earlier and more successfully their kids will sign in return. The payoff is tremendous!”

“When Miriam was 12 months old we started classes with Happy Baby Signs' 6-week Playgroup and within a month she was signing many useful signs including: BROCCOLI, BABY, as well as MORE, ALL DONE, BATH, SLEEP, and BALL. Communication became much less frustrating! We liked it so much we hosted a 6-week series for our family. Soon, she was signing "More food please." Organizing the series schedule ourselves allowed me to attend most of the classes and learn quite a bit of ASL while juggling my career and our older son's schedule."

FAQs
May I skip the Introductory Workshop and jump into a Six-Day Series now?
The Introductory Workshop is followed by our Six-Day Series where we build your signing vocabulary with themes like mealtime signs, colors, animals, family, bedtime, and more. Eighteen sessions are split into three different six-day series named after the primary colors: Red, Yellow, and Blue. We recommend completion of the Introductory Workshop prior to enrolling in a Six-Day Series. That said, completion of the Introductory Workshop isn't required to matriculate into one of the Six-Day Series. You may want to skip the Introductory Workshop if you have had experience signing with babies and feel confident using sign language or have taken American Sign Language (ASL) in school.
