Everyday conversations for little learners! Talk, sign, read, and sing with your baby every day!
You can use your voice (spoken language) or your hands (sign language) to communicate with your child.
The MOST important thing we can do to prepare our children for reading and learning is to read aloud to them.
Babies love songs that they can see and hear…familiar songs and made up songs! You can sing a song using your voice or your hands (sign language).
What is the desired outcome for your child? Where do you see him in the future? Your belief in your child will drive his future outcomes.
Get into your child’s world, get down on her level and see what she sees, participate in what she’s doing.
Gain baby’s attention and talk with him. Give baby words to make meaning from what he is hearing. These strategies show baby that sound is meaningful and everywhere!
All children who are deaf and hard of hearing need skills to navigate their language and environments, which are filled with visual and auditory distractions.
Always know where your child is headed. Stay ‘One Step Ahead’ of where your baby is understanding, signing or talking.
We are hard wired to connect with others through language, emotions, and shared experiences.
Give your child lots of finger-spelled words to connect what she is seeing, doing and feeling.
Waiting gives your child time to process what you have said/signed and to respond accordingly.
