Directions: When you anticipate that your baby is hungry, ask him, "Do you want some milk? Are you ready for some milk?" Sit your baby on your lap so that he is facing you and can see you clearly. Demonstrate the sign while you say the word and act out or gesture the meaning.
Sign language is a great tool for your child to use when communicating. As your child grows, he will begin to speak his wants and needs directly to you.
