Sign Languages Movie Reviews

This product contains two DVD's that introduce basic sign language vocabulary and a CD-ROM disc containing a visual sign language dictionary and sign language games. The hosts sign all their verbal explanations at normal signing speed, but you have plenty of opportunity to learn each sign at a learner's speed. There are dramatizations of sign language conversations. You gain more knowledge of sign language each time you watch these two DVD's, and you learn not only to sign, but to read others' sign language. The sign language dictionary has video clips of real people signing each entry. Very helpful. I highly recommend this product for adult beginners of sign language.

Signing Time has been my toddler's favorite video for the past year & a half (she's 2-1/2 now)... we have all three of the original series and are expectantly awaiting the new releases! It's amazing to see your little one, who's verbal abilities have yet to be formed, but with their hands, they are able to communicate with you! The music in these videos is outstanding, the use of children speaking the words AND signing the words, interspersed with animation, and the serene mommy, Rachel, introducing each sign, make for delightful viewing that parents, toddlers AND older kids will thoroughly enjoy over and over and over again! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Me and my family love this video! My kids love to sign along with the other young kids in the videos. The songs (also on the CD) are catchy and are fun to listen to in the car. My son is unable to speak and he learned several signs after just a few viewings! My speaking child learned also. If it was possible, on a scale of 1 to 5 it would rate a 6!

I started showing my baby this video at 6 months, it is still his favorite! He's now 12 months and recognizes about 6-10 signs. He doesn't seem to have the dexterity to do the signs yet, but he clearly understands the most important ones so far like eat, more, milk (nursing), water, dog, cat, banana. My husband and I now use the simple signs if we're out in a loud place and can't hear each other. Furthermore, I am a pediatrician and show the 3 volumes of signing time in my office. I encourage everyone to learn the basic signs and especially all children with hearing or learning disabilities.
