Signing and Music Storytime
Castro Valley Library, Castro Valley
0mo–12yr
Children, parents and caregivers will have a blast laughing, signing, and singing with Teacher Bill, author of the book Signs of a Happy Baby . Mr. Bill integrates American Sign Language (ASL) into his storytime. This six week series is a fun opportunity for you to build your signing vocabulary with themes like mealtime, animals, colors, family, bedtime, and more. Baby Sign Language gives children the opportunity to communicate long before they can verbalize their wants and needs. Research studies show that signing with babies accelerates language acquisition, reduces frustration, enhances a child's self-esteem, and deepens the bond between parent and child.
