So I've been teaching my son sign language since we came home. I found "signing Time" and "Baby Signing Time" videos at the library and fell in love with them. My son has his favorites and has learned a lot of signs, a good thing since he isn't speaking yet but is a very demanding toddler. The makers of these videos are branching into preschool videos, but TV said it was too educational. Go figure. So I wanted to share because I think having these options is great and I am looking forward to them.

That is such a wonderful to teach kids. I am delighted he is learning it so well. Good luck in future endeavors of teaching him.

You GO, Laurie! I think you're amazing - what a wonderful thing to teach your son! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

As far as the "too educational for TV" comment - shocker, eh? I'm happy to support something as wonderful as this! If only TV WERE educational! If anything, most - but not all - of it is dumbed down. Such a shame!

Keep up the good stuff!

Hugs -

I'm excited about this. People have funded almost three videos. And my son picked up two new signs last week - squirrel an grass
