Description:

This set of five individual lessons will help you to teach you little one to sign to a variety of popular children's songs, including: 'Itsy Bitsy Spider,' 'Baa Baa Black Sheep,' 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star,' 'Old MacDonald Had a Farm,' 'On Top of Spaghetti,' 'Row, Row, Row your Boat,' 'It's Raining, It's Pouring,' 'RED,' 'YELLOW,' 'GREEN,' and 'BLUE.'

Children love putting actions to songs, so why not teach them ASL signs to use with the songs? These lessons will take you through each song step-by-step and show you the different signs you can use when singing the songs.

In addition to these songs, you'll also learn several different alphabet songs (whether you're American and say Zee or Canadian and say Zed) - one that teaches what the letters sound like and one that teaches words that start with the letters.

For all of the songs, Laura will walk you through exactly how to make the correct signs.

Enjoy!

I really like this, but I wish each song was on a video by itself so we could go straight to it.
And I wish I could get this on a DVD so I and Kids could watch it together.
I love the music, it's so fun.
Thanks Ruth Glenn

I thought this was great. I'm teaching my preschool class to sing and sign the alphabet song for their graduation ceremony. This is a great way to reinforce the sign language motions. I only gave it a 4 out of 5 just because the picture resolution isn't the greatest -especially when you do full screen-

I learned ASL in high school, but haven't used it much since then. This lesson was such a refresher, and is easy to remember, set to a song (original music by the author!). This lesson has inspired me to start using sign language with my toddler to further encourage his speech and communication. I can't wait to see how it goes!

I've already forwarded this to a all of my soon-to-be-mommy friends. Laura is so talented in her ability to teach babies sign language. As seen in the video, her daughter is incredibly smart already! I can't believe she speaks so well and at such a young age.

This video is very useful and full of great information. Learning how to sign 'Old McDonald' and 'On Top of Spaghetti' are great first songs to teach your kids.

Laura's baby is adorable singing and signing those songs. I liked that she explains you can just do the main signs until you and your baby are ready for more. It makes it fun but not intimidating.
