Baby Einstein - My First Signs [DVD]

Our family has most of the Baby Einstein movies. They are all great educational entertainment for infant, toddlers and even small children. My First Signs DVD is another one that continues to entertain and educate by getting plenty of use at our house.

Awesome. My children loved it

I searched for a long time to find a sign language video that had useful signs for a young child to learn. Many videos taught you how to say things like airplane, animal signs, or other non-essential words. I didnt feel these words were as useful as words that expressed her needs/desires. I wanted something that would facilitate communication and express needs before she was able to do so verbally. This video teaches words like Mommy, Daddy, milk, blanket, and many more useful words. Our daughter loves this video. She is entertained by the puppets and is picking up the language. This is a fabulous video for anyone that wants their children to learn words that express their needs/desires through sign language.

Awesome tool for helping itty bitties learn to communicate!

I received my dvd alot sooner than expected and its perfect condition. My 2 yr old autistic son will benefit from this. Yall must buy ! Thank you!

Not nearly as captivating to my baby as My baby can talk videos. I do like that they showed Please and thank you in a little skit. My daughter has learnt over ten signs from my baby can talk videos and no signs from baby Einstein video. She doesnt get excited for it either. I do like the signs they teach though, perhaps can be considered more useful than the my baby can talk ones.

We first offered this to our daughter at about age 6 months, but she wasnt as interested in it as she was with her Baby Mozart, Beethoven, etc. However, she developed more interest at about 10 months, when she became more verbal. Although she never really uses the signs on their own to communicate with us, she began verbalizing the words first by identifying the objects (Mommy, Daddy, baby, cereal, ball, etc.) whenever she saw them, and then using the sign while verbalizing. She often starts the sign game by calling out words and signing them back and forth with us. She also responds appropriately to us when we sign instructions to her (e.g., sleep, eat, drink). This DVD still holds her attention, with its clever use of calm but happy music, and puppet shows in between the signing sequences. We also get more use out of it by using the Bonus Features to learn additional words, or for a quick viewing of puppet shows only. As with the other Baby Einstein DVDs that we own, we also enjoy the diversity of children in the scenes so that all children will see themselves when watching this. This was a great addition to our daughters library.

My daughter has been watching this for months now. She knew some signs from a book I purchased but she learned more from this video. Even though she can now say all the words, she still likes to sign for them as well. This is still among one of her most favorite DVDs to watch.

Though I have not viewed the DVD yet because its for my sons birthday, I am extremely happy with how quickly it was delivered. I received it a week before the estimated delivery! As far as the DVD goes, its a Baby Einstein ... Im sure it will be awesome!

Fast shipping and great price! My baby loves this. Watches at 11 months.
