omg if you and Fireese got on Oprah.. (and i dont see why you wouldnt) it would be amazing, the exposure and for more parents to see the benefits of signing with their babies! you should definitely enter.. you cant lose, and there's much to gain! :)
everybody would love Fireese as much as us 'subscribers' do.

@mowdaras My wife's parents speak only Chinese. My wife and I are bilingual; her native language is Chinese and mine English. Our baby learned to sign around one year and really took off when we got her the Baby Signing Time program at about 14 months. She was a bit late speaking (about 18 months) but now, at two years, she is using full sentences in both languages and can read about 100 words. Sign language served as a bridge between the two languages helping her connect the words.

congrats Laura & Fireese! it's brilliant that people are starting to teach there kids sign young. my sister is profoundly deaf and a lot of people dont know sign language - so now as more people learn hopefully in the years to come a lot of people should be able to sign.
i also agree with ginamartinez, you should go on oprah or some show like that and spread the word!
btw - Fireese is so cute!!!!

@MrMahdoh nope, not showing off. My whole point is that ALL children are capable of doing this, not just mine. I've seen hundreds of kids do this!

Hi Laura, firstly its fantastic to watch a mother so involved and connected to her baby its a beautiful sight.
So our daughter is closing in on 5 months age we are thinking of starting to sign with. She is solely on the breast & is just starting to roll on her back & sit up. I speak English as a 1st language & arabic her mother speaks Bulgarian so we are expecting her to speak late but all 3 languages at once. So we want her to sign in the meantime so how long will it take for her to start

Thank you :-)
All babies are different, some pick signing up fast and others take a little longer. The important part is to be consistent when you do sign. Every time you say the word make the sign. That way she'll pick it up faster. Have a read of the article I wrote (link in my channel page) that gives suggestions on how to start signing :-)
