My mood while writing this blog: Proud Mommy!

Well as you may be aware Grace has been attending Tink Talk (baby sign) since she was 6mths old. We go every week and she really loves it. The class consists of learning a few new signs each week and signing to nursery rhymms. Grace squeals with delight throughout the nursery rhymms! After half and hour of signing and singing the musical instraments are brought out for some more songs. The last half an hour is time for us mommys to chat over a coffee whilst our babies play with the toys.

Anyway the reason i'm letting you all know about this is because in the 4mths that Grace has been attending she has learnt to sign the following. I have put them down in the order she did them.

Milk, Mommy, duck, bird, food, dog, fish and today chicken! As you can see Grace has covered the most important ones milk, mommy and food. By the look of the others she also loves animals!

Starting to go to Tiny Talk is one of the best things i have decided to take any of my children too. Nikki the lady who teaches the class has said that it doesn't matter how much you try to teach them certain signs they will do the ones that they choose Grace should be signing daddy, what and bath for the amount of times we do them for her so guess she's right there!
