This week’s is from TinyTalk Baby Signing and Toddler Talking - West Hull Villages.

“One of our Cottingham class babies was watching a programme about cows this week on the TV. The narrator kept mentioning ‘milk’ as they were milking the cows. Little Vinnie started signing ‘milk’ along with the TV, showing that he’d heard and understood what they were talking about!”

Clever boy Vinnie 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Can I join part way through a term?

YES!

TinyTalk classes DO NOT run as a course which you need to attend from start to finish. TinyTalk classes are ‘rolling classes’. This means that families can join at any point in the term. And they won’t be behind other families either. TinyTalk terms are structured with every third week being a recap week, so signs can be caught up.

Find the perfect class to bond with your newborn, connect with your baby, chat with your child. Search www.tinytalk.co.uk /www.tinytalk.ch for details of your local classes in the UK and Switzerland.

Definitely 💜

A Springtime …

"My little girl was in the kitchen, I could hear her babbling away, so I turned and looked and she had one finger up her nose. Luckily the other was pointing out of the window at the snowdrops coming up in the garden. She was trying to sign and say ‘flower’! I was so relieved that she wasn't actually picking her nose."

We'd love to hear your signing stories - please do share them with us 💜

This week’s is Richie TinyTalk Evesham, Droitwich & Worcester North.

This clever little chap has reached 125 signs with some excellent signing of ‘boy’ and ‘girl’ when he was talking about seeing his friends at TinyTalk! How cute is that? 🥰

Apparently earlier in the year Richie was really struggling with loud noises and busy spaces and his wonderful supported him so well with sign and assuring Richie that he was safe. He’s come through that phrase stronger than ever and he’s back to his cheerful, fun loving and confident self, which is great to hear.

Richie we think you’re amazing 🤩

Your little ones receive signing achievement certificates from our teachers. For one week only: parent certificates! 😂

What have you achieved this week? Blow your own trumpets …! 💜

Siblings Cole and Autumn TinyTalk Warrington, Newton and Lymm (baby signing and toddler talking) are keeping it in the family with their 1st signs!

They have both learnt their 1st sign ‘milk’ 🍼 at the tender age of just 5 months old! 👏🏼👏🏼 They are TinyTalk Newborn Communication Workshop graduates, proving it’s never too early to start signing with your baby.

Well done to the clever little communicators 💜

Oh the drama!! Has this been your day? 🧡

It’s World Book Day today 📚

We love books at TinyTalk and we regularly include a signed story in our classes.

Why do we love books so much? Here’s two of many reasons …

Looking through a book together provides a fantastic opportunity to teach your little ones some signs. This is because the book shows pictorial examples of the vocabulary you are teaching them.

Shared reading is a wonderful experience that allows you to bond with your child as you gently introduce and develop early language and literacy skills.

Have fun with books and if your little one is getting involved with World Book Day in your TinyTalk class, we’d love to see the photos so pop them in the comments below 📚

Excellent advice ☕️

This week’s is about an ex-TinyTalker called Adam from Laura’s TinyTalk Baby Signing and Toddler Talking in Somerset & Wiltshire classes. Adam has global development delay and was 2 1/2 years old when this story happened.

“Last week Adam's mum told me that he kept signing ‘dolly’, ‘pain’ and touching his ear. Miss Molly has a Dolly is one of his favourite songs and he often uses the sign for Dolly to refer to himself. He kept on signing ‘pain’ and touching his ear, so she took him to the doctors and he had an ear infection, which was luckily quickly cleared up with some medication. It is just so fantastic that he was able to tell her what was wrong! Adam's Mum says that signing has transformed his communication and made things so much easier for them all.”
