Organized and led by a physical therapist, occupational therapist, and/or speech-language pathologist, both motor milestones and communication milestones will be discussed, and activities will be demonstrated to promote optimal development. Additionally, parents will learn the importance of meeting each milestone and how to support their baby’s physical and communicative development by providing appropriate toys, games, activities, and interactions. Ages 0-12 months
Baby Sign Infants develop the fine muscles in their hands before they develop those required for speech, so your baby is ready to communicate with you before they can speak. The most common reason for teaching your baby sign is to find out exactly what is going on in a baby’s mind. But there are many more benefits including: reducing frustration, making learning to speak easier, stimulating intellectual development, and increasing self-confidence. The signs that are taught are symbolic gestures that are one form of communication used by pre-verbal infants and toddlers. A baby has the potential use of the hands and body to aid in communicating thoughts, wants, fears, needs and memories. When babies learn sign language, this skill provides him or her with a powerful educational tool of earlier communication. Learning sign language does not delay speech, but in fact aids speech development. Our classes are offered for children up to 18 months of age and are taught by a speech-language. Ages 18 months and up
