Editor: Iinfants and toddlers wish to communicate their needs and wishes, but lack the ability to do so clearly because they cannot speak. This gap Between desire to communicate and ability often leads to frustration and tantrums. With Baby Sign, infants can learn to express their needs using simple signs for common words such as "eat", "sleep", "more", "hug", "play", "cookie", "Teddy bear", etc., before they are able to produce understandable speech.
