Every smile, wave, point or attempt at a sign is a step in your baby's communication journey.

Communication doesn't begin with first words, it starts much earlier through shared moments, gestures and interaction. Every little milestone is worth celebrating, because these small steps build confidence, strengthen your bond, and lay the foundations for language.

Remember, progress doesn't have to be perfect. Celebrate every conversation, no matter how small.

Breastfeeding is about more than feeding, it's also a time for bonding, comfort and communication between parent and baby.

Why not learn the Signalong sign for breastfeeding and use it as part of your everyday routine? Introducing signs alongside speech can help support early communication long before little ones begin to talk.

The first few years of a child’s life are full of exciting discoveries. Babies are constantly learning about the world around them, developing the skills they need for communication, learning, and social interaction. Two of the most important foundations for this development are listening and attention skills.

While many people think of signing as simply a way to support communication, it can also play a valuable role in helping babies develop their ability to focus, engage, and listen.

Discover how signing supports early listening and attention skills below

Nursery rhymes are a fantastic way to support your baby's communication, language development and listening skills. When we add signs to familiar songs and rhymes, babies have even more opportunities to understand and join in.

This week, why not choose a favourite nursery rhyme and try adding a few signs as you sing together? Repetition, actions and music all help make learning fun and memorable.

Whether it's Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, Row, Row, Row Your Boat or The Wheels on the Bus.

Did you know that babies can often use signs before they are able to say words?

That's because the muscles needed for hand movements develop earlier than those needed for clear speech. Signing gives babies a way to communicate their needs, thoughts, and feelings while their spoken language is still developing.

✨ Signing can help babies:
• Express basic needs such as more, milk, or finished
• Reduce frustration for both babies and caregivers
• Build confidence through successful communication
• Support early language and social development

Far from delaying speech, research suggests that signing can support language learning by helping babies connect words, meanings, and communication. Especially since Signalong uses signs alongside speech.
