Below is an event alert from Missy aka The Marketing Mama
Teaching babies and toddlers sign language to help them communicate has become the new "in" thing - for good
reason, it helps them communicate their needs before they can talk. On Friday, April 30, in Maple Grove there
will be a concert featuring Rachel Coleman of Signing Time. Chances are you've come across Signing Time on
PBS, Nick Jr or even at the library. It's an amazing educational show that teaches sign language through singing
fun songs.
Signing Time is not designed to only serve those with hearing difficulties, it is also excellent for teaching babies
and toddlers how to communicate (which is what we did in our family), and many individuals with disabilities
find signing helps them immensely.
The concert is going to be a benefit to raise money for the Signing Time Foundation, which means the tickets are
very reasonable at $5 for children under 18 and $10 for adults. The show will be lots of fun for Signing Time
fans and families that are new to signing.

Oh! We LOVE Signing Time!
We get the videos at the library, and my 20 month old signs more words than she talks. My 3 1/2 year old will
sign the "It's signing time with Alex and Leah" song whenever we pick out a video. Thanks for letting me know
about this - I've got to take them!!!
