Your baby has A LOT to say! With just a few easy-to-learn American Sign Language signs, you can start communicating with your preverbal baby. Caregivers, with babies from 6-15 months old, will learn how to use simple ASL signs to help their baby communicate long before speech is possible. Babies will enjoy music, games, stories, bubbles & seeing other babies, in this interactive class for parents and babies to attend together. Join us as we sing, sign and play our way through learning!

Registration required. Please register yourself and note how old your baby is in the question field.
