Baby Signs

Step 6 - More Signs

You can also choose to use some of these words in the initial handful of signs you choose to begin with. Remember, look at these steps as suggestions, it is not absolutely necessary to follow them exactly.

Some of these signs may require you to form your hand into a handshape from the manual alphabet. See my American Sign Language Alphabet page to see these handshapes.
