Baby Signs® Classes 

The Sign, Say & Play® curriculum 

is a 6-week program 

of carefully crafted sequenced sessions developed 

especially for parents and babies. By embedding the 

learning of signs in activities that promote cognitive, 

social, language, literacy, and sensory-motor development 

more generally, we are able to teach parents 

specific ways to provide the support in these areas that 

all babies need to make the most of their critical first 

three years.
