Hand Talk







This last week, Henry and, to a lesser extent Audrey, began signing.
Henry really understood "More" when Mommy would sign it to him while eating. Lot's of incentive there, but it really just seemed to click very quickly: bring hands together in front of chest a couple times, Mommy says "Good!" and gives me food.
Audrey seems to understand, but doesn't "say" the word. Her interest lately is lights, and understands the word when spoken to her: "Where's the light?" and she will look for the nearest light. She might be starting to sign light, but she also likes to open-and-close her hands when excited anyway.
Henry has started signing "light" actively and understands it too. We're now working on "All done" with he and Audrey too.
