Every Child a Talker

I went on a cluster for ECAT last night.  It was really interesting and we learnt about baby sign.  There are various types of sign language, but the one we learnt and that our area is encouraging, was 'signalong'.  It is different from the Makaton which Mr. Tumble/AKA Justin teaches us!  We are being given manuals containing lots of different signs, so once we receive it, we'll introduce some to the children.  The older children will find it quite fun and it will help the younger children, who can't yet communicate verbally, to tell us what they want.
