Sign and Sing Along: Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear!

Sing and Sing Along

by Annie Kubler

Children are able to communicate by signing before they develop the skills necessary for speech. By teaching simple sign language to children from as young as eight months, we can help them to convey their emotions and their needs. When children begin to talk, having sign language to fall back on provides a comforting safety net. Add to the fun of signing by singing well-known nursery rhymes and songs. Even proficient speakers will long enjoy signing to a favourite song or rhyme. Simple and clear signing instructions allow anyone to join in.

Toddlers 2 to 5 can learn sign language while singing the song of Teddy Bear Teddy Bear and attempting the cool little dance moves toddlers can do, like turn round and round and reach for the ceiling, etc. Ms Kubler also has drawings of Chinese kids mingling with white and black tots, so her commitment to diversity in kids books shines thru once again.Whether your "little bear" is an Asian bear, black bear or a White polar bear, all are welcome to play! Welcome to the real world, DONALD!

Board book to popular rhyme that might make a good book in hand for baby time program.

I like the Signing aspect, but am not sure about the light sign after looking at and reading the book...

Thanks to my obsession with Sue Thomas F.B. Eye I have wanted to learn some basic signs...so I ordered this series. I really like the simple illustrations and clear written instructions of the sings. Good for me a beginner and good for babies! I learned the sign for Teddy bear that I know is going to come in handy some day!
