Hello
Everyone
Communication
is the key!
Parent of
young children around the world are using deaf sign language a way of
communicating with their children before the children are able to meaningfully
talk. This usually takes place around 2
years of age.
Deaf sign
language is becoming increasingly popular bridge to move from the babble of
babies to conversational language.
Many people
say that the deaf sign language promotes brain development and infant bonding whilst
at the same time giving babies the ability to communicate their needs a little
earlier.
From about
the age of nine months, babies wave their hands and arms, gesturing and
pointing. As they learn to walk their arms
and hands become freer to express themselves.
In the US a
longitudinal study from National Institutes of Health indicated that babies
given sign language along with talking scored better on multiple measures of
language acquisition than those not given that exposure.
This
research and the desire to communicate is a constant reminder of the importance
of communicating with the ones we love.
Parents can put so much effort into understanding the needs of their
little ones.
Communication
adult to adult seldom occurs with such a desire for understanding. New lovers might experience it but the
intensity usually dies away. Imagine if
we, as adults put in as much effort in understanding the needs of the children
and adults in our lives.
