Editorial Reviews:

Inspiring early language development - from simple gestures to first spoken words.

My Baby Can Talk - First Signs is designed to be baby's first introduction to preverbal communication and teaches American Sign Language in a format that delights the senses while tapping into a baby's innate language capabilities. Created to encourage interaction and set to classical music, My Baby Can Talk - First Signs takes babies and their parents on an inspiring discovery of the first words and signs that are most loved by babies - including eat, drink, milk, more, book, go and favorite animals to delight babies and inspire them to begin to sign!

Honored with fourteen prestigious parenting awards and reviewed and endorsed by child psychologists, professionals in the media as well as early childhood educators; the My Baby Can Talk series inspires preverbal communication as well as first spoken words and is the first program featuring preverbal babies signing. Research has shown that babies who use sign language tend to speak sooner with larger vocabularies, show an increase in IQ scores and engage in more sophisticated play.

The My Baby Can Talk series is specifically developed to respect the developmental stage, attention span and intellect of hearing babies from 10 to 36 months. This program includes a Parent Tutorial and a printed Quick Reference Signing Card.

MyBabyCanTalk.com is the premier resource center on the Internet for babies and signing featuring detailed tutorials, background research, and a video dictionary with more than 200 ASL signs that are most important to and appropriate for babies and toddlers.

Summary: It bores me to tears but I'm not a baby...
Comment: I thought that teaching my baby to sign was silly. At nine months I bought "first signs" for Ruth. She couldn't have cared less. She didn't like videos at all. Before calling it a lost cause I tried again when she was around 12 months.

Now, she will not eat a meal without "baby". As a matter-of-fact, this is how we get her to eat an entire meal. I sit with her and we watch baby signs. I bought the other two videos (sharing signs and exploring signs) and we rotate them. She can do most of the signs and understands them and uses them properly. She is 16 months. I am happy to say at 42 I can understand and use the signs properly as well...

I only gave the video 4 stars because I do think that some of word choices are weird. Why do we need to know the sign for dinosaur? I'm sure someone needs it...not us. However "hat" is more useful than I would have thought. And sharing signs is great with "please" and "thank you".

BOTTOM LINE: My daughter is engaged and entertained and it probably has helped with her verbal communication as well as her non-verbal communication skills. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Excellent Learning Video
Comment: I purchased this video when my adopted son was diagnosed as being "speech delayed" at 9 months. It was absolutely fascinating to see him respond to the simple signs that helped him communicate with me. I would play the video with him sitting in front of me and we would practice the signs together. It helped him see other children actually using the sign language to communicate words. He loved it and I did too. It wasn't very long before he was signing several words to tell me what he wanted. I tied this video with others because they each provided a different way of communicating sign language and words. I found it was most useful to have different videos produced by different companies to offer a broader range of learning. If I have another child, speech delayed or not, I will incorporate sign language videos at an early age to assist in teaching vocabulary and speaking words correctly via sign.

Summary: Highly recommended!
Comment: I purchased this video for my 11 month old, who usually won't sit still for more than 5 minutes, and she LOVES it! She will sit and watch the whole video and is completely enthralled by it. What's even more impressive is after just 3 weeks she can make 3 of the signs from the video. I found it helpful to see how a baby might make the signs so I knew what to look for when she started to sign.

Summary: It works--here's our story.
Comment: Our twelve-month-old wakes up in the morning and does the sign for dog as she says 'dog' and points up to the video shelf. Dog is her name for the video.

These video's really work. She is starting the third video now and is using new signs every day.

She tells us when she wants milk, is hungry, thirsty, in pain, needs a diaper change, as well as when she sees animals of all kinds. People are blown away when we demonstrate what she can do.

Probably the most profound impact that signing has had on her is that after learning the sign for pain (which is not in the videos) when she hurts herself, she tells us she has pain and where it is. Then when we make the sign for pain and touch her where it hurts, she immediately stops crying. She communicates the pain to us and we let her know that we understand and she no longer feels the need to cry about it. It is amazing.

We let her see one of the videos about four or five times a week and we sign with her throughout the day. We started at about 8 months and within about two weeks, she started signing 'milk'. She picked up about 5 or 6 signs before about the tenth month and then came the explosion of signs. She talks to us all day now in signs. Signing with your baby is a wonderful thing that I'm glad we decided to do.

Although it would be possible to teach your baby signs without the video, the videos are wonderfully effective and I'm sure that our baby wouldn't be doing as well without them.

Summary: Very nicely done!
Comment: My daughter has delayed speech and the therapist recommended sign language. My daughter loves baby Einsteins since she was real you and she likes this just as much. It has nice music and she repeats the things that she sees and hears. Very good product!
