8-Week Wee Sign Together Interactive Course

Currently, our Wee Sign Together Course consists of 8-week sessions, which meet once a week for 45 minutes. This interactive parent/child participation class includes learning 10- 20 signs per week based on a theme characteristic of events in their daily routine, such as meal time, bedtime, bath time etc. The course was designed by a team of speech-language pathologists to enhance speech, language, and communication development for infants 6 months to 2 years of age. Learning takes place in an active, social atmosphere involving movement, exploration, pictures, and music. Through guided interactions, parents learn simple signs, and are shown how to turn daily routines into communication-rich experiences.

Parents are provided with a Wee Sign Parent Handbook, which includes pictures of persons demonstrating signs and are categorized by the weekly theme. Also included in the Wee Sign Parent Handbook are course syllabus, songs, games, activities and teaching tips.

Cost of an 8 week Course is $160 (includes a $20 materials fee). Classes are offered in a variety of settings and may also be offered to your group at a parent’s home in the area of your preference. Our instructors can easily transport class materials to present the 8 week series in your own living room! Please call us to host a course in your home or to join a group that may be forming in your area.
