| Editorial Reviews:
Description Inspiring early language development - from simple gestures to first spoken words. Designed to encourage interaction, My Baby Can Talk - Sharing Signs teaches babies to communicate before they can speak using sign language in a format that delights the senses while tapping into a baby's innate language capabilities. Set to classical music, My Baby Can Talk - Sharing Signs takes babies and their parents on an inspiring discovery of 28 words and signs that are most loved by babies - including all done, apple, bath, ball, daddy, diaper, elephant, flower, help, mommy, please, share, and thank you! Honored with fourteen prestigious parenting awards and reviewed and endorsed by child psychologists, professionals in the media as well as early childhood educators; the My Baby Can Talk series inspires preverbal communication as well as first spoken words and is the first program featuring preverbal babies signing. Research has shown that babies who use sign language tend to speak sooner with larger vocabularies, show an increase in IQ scores and engage in more sophisticated play. The My Baby Can Talk series is specifically developed to respect the developmental stage, attention span and intellect of hearing babies from 10 to 36 months. This program includes a Parent Tutorial and a printed Quick Reference Signing Card. MyBabyCanTalk.com is the premier resource center on the Internet for babies and signing featuring detailed tutorials, background research, and a video dictionary with more than 200 ASL signs that are most important to and appropriate for babies and toddlers.

Great Video! June 21, 2010 Rosa M. Boisset-brindle (Cleveland, OH) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My 15-month old daughter loves this video! We had been watching My Baby Can Talk-First Signs for a while, and we were both sick and tired of it! (Don't get me wrong, it's a great video, but we had been watching it for too long :-)). This new video caught my daughter's interest and attention immediately! She laughed and smiled throughout the video, and after watching it only once, she started signing for "plane". We've been watching it for a couple of weeks now, and she's already signing for at least 10 of the words presented there. I love the fact that there are so many different people in this video. In addition to the adorable little girl who demonstrates each sign, and who appears in the First Signs video, too, there's a cute little boy, three other babies and a few adults. This gives the video variety and is really fun to watch. It also teaches useful words such as "daddy" "mommy" "diaper" "cracker" and introduces the concepts of "please" and "thank you". All and all, a wonderful purchase. I highly recommend it!
Wow! April 18, 2010 Tomo Lennox (Minneapolis, MN USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the third baby sign language DVD I bought for my 2-year old. It does not have the slick animation that the others have, but it does not seem to need it. Baby us glued to the screen whenever I show it, and started using the signs after the second viewing. It has a lot more signs than other DVDs and both the segment for parents and the included booklet are full of even more signs. This is really a learning resource!
I have seen the DVD at least a dozen times now, and I still like watching it.
Highest possible recommendation. July 27, 2009 Jeff Bearer (Pittsburgh, PA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My daughter is just turning 17 months and we have been using all 3 my baby can talk DVD's since she was 9 months old, she knows nearly every sign on all 3 dvd's and uses them in her daily life. This is a fantastic tool and I could not imagine raising my daughter and not being able to communicate like we can with the signs she has learned.
When I first watched "First Signs" I thought give me a break, this is so lame. But it shows what I know, my daughter loved it, it was like baby crack. At 9-10 months she would watch 25-35 minutes straight before she would loose attention. To contrast we tried some of the Baby Einstein sign videos when she was around a year old. They are more glitzy and have the TV Actress Marlee Matlin signing. But my daughter didn't appreciate any of that production value, she barely paid any attention to them at all.
I tell everyone I know with infants about these DVD's and recommend them at the highest level.
Absolutely Engaging to my 14 mo. old son July 22, 2009 Jessica Thornock (Utah) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just started having him watch educational videos while I cook. No other videos I have (elmo, Barney, wiggles, etc.) keep his attention like this one. I'm glad cause I much perfer a signing video to keep his attention than the others. He always giggles and looks at me during the monkey sign images at the beginning. He does it every time especially with the last monkey toy shown. We checked it out from the library and now I will buy it because I can always trust he'll watch it while I prepare food. And it's soooo engaging. I haven't seen the other ones. We watch it once a day almost. Yesterday my son was sick, so he was clingy when ever he was awake, but at least some of the day he was entertained by something other than me and some toys occasionally, so I could make something healthy to eat. I did read on other reviews that on another video in the series that some signs by the kids are not clear. Some in this one aren't either. I know babies won't be perfect at it, but at least the kids in an instructional video should be pretty close to it. It would bug me if my son signed weird because his imitating the kids, but we're not to that point yet. My son barely signs yet. We've only had the video for 2 weeks. I love the classical music, and how it is coordinated with actions of objects and people in the video. I personally like the close up on the pictures in on the shirts. Kids love the things on their shirts and to be silly about what they are wearing. You'd have to watch to know. Any misconception can be cleared up by me reinforcing the signs when I can, especially during the video, interacting with him during the video with objects we have, like a hat, stuffed monkey, diaper, cracker, etc.
Nice educational DVD June 27, 2009 Albert E. (New Haven, CT) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a nice educational DVD for a baby to watch, the genre being quite limited. Also highly recommended is a music DVD entitled Trebellina.
