I am sure many of you have heard of Elizabeth Barrett, the 17 month old that can read. The story is quite amazing. I had the oppurtunity to speak with mom and she gave me this sign language website that produces a TV show as well as videos and other great products to help the whole family learn to sign. Elizabeth watches this program daily and mom does credit the show for helping her daughter develop. I am always on the look out for fun ways to teach my son sign language and am very excited about this site.  If you would like more info on Elizabeth and her family they also have a website http://www.elizabethreads.com/. It is still under construction but it has a lot of great info.

Signing Time are wonderful videos that teach a variety of words related to different subjects/categories- like farm, at home, etc. They were developed my a mother whose child uses sign language.
