The Benefits Of Baby Sign Language

Babies learn language in a progressive way. First, they learn to distinguish sounds from each other, and notice familiar syllables and patterns. They also have a sense for tone, which conveys emotion. They see facial expressions and begin to assign them meaning, as well. For example, a rather high-pitched repetition of their name with a smile can be recognized early on by very young infants.
