Like the original, series two will continue building children's ASL vocabulary with many new signs. In addition to its signature clever animation and new original songs from co-founder Rachel Coleman, Signing Time series two includes several new learning modules that not only put children's ASL vocabulary to work but enhance their overall learning, communication, self-confidence, and verbal skills.
The Toy Fair, held at the Jacob K. Javitz Convention Center in New York City, holds educational seminars focused on successful business practices, growth and development in the toy industry.
Signing Time offers an unparalleled multi-sensory approach to learning through three senses: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Signing Time reaches children with diverse learning styles and abilities by encouraging interaction through signing, singing, speaking, and dancing. Featuring Rachel Coleman, her daughter Leah -- who is deaf -- along with Alex (Leah's cousin, who can hear) and their animated pet frog Hopkins, the Signing Time series teaches hundreds of ASL vocabulary-building signs that are useful in daily life.
As early as nine months, babies and toddlers can learn to communicate
through signs and research shows that babies who learn to sign may
experience reduced frustrations and fewer tantrums, enhanced cognitive
development and increased IQ scores, increased bonding with parents,
increased interest in books, and quicker development of speaking
