Great Baby Rhymes & Signs to Learn & Teach Today

Baby Rhymes

Rhymes are our first step to literacy. Through repetition your baby will learn how language works while improving his memorization skills. Learning rhymes helps your little one by giving him the capability to intuitively recognize syntax. Knowledge learned through memorization and repetition of well-known rhymes will also allow your baby to transfer principles of language formation to all verbal and social interactions. Additionally, rhymes equip little ones with a strong grasp of phonetics. We believe that combining rhymes with baby signs can further your baby’s understanding of symbolism and abstract concepts.

When teaching our babies rhymes and the signs associated to each rhyme, we want to carefully select the signs we will use. The goal is not to teach the child a full translation of the rhyme into sign language. Instead, we are looking to emphasize memorable concepts such as objects or actions that are easy to understand and are highly relevant to the day-to-day activities of your baby’s routine.

Join us as we learn three popular rhymes. Below each rhyme you will find links to signs you can integrate to your learning and teaching routine:

Colors Over You

Red and yellow, green and blue, these are the colors over you
Red as a flower, green as a tree
Yellow as the sun, and blue as the sea
Red and yellow, green and blue, these are the colors over you

Print your flash cards:

Red, yellow, green, blue, flower, tree, sun, sea.

 

Tiny Tim

There was a little turtle,
His name was tiny tim.
I put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim.
He drank up all the water,
He ate up all the soap,
And now he is in the bathtub,
With a bubble in his throat.
Bubble, bubble,bubble,
Bubble, bubble, bubble,
Bubble, bubble, bubble,
Bubble, bubble, pop!

Print your flash cards:

Turtle, tiny, bath, swim, drink, water, eat, soap, bubble.

Little Poll Parrot

Little Poll Parrot
Sat in his garret
Eating toast and tea.
A little brown mouse
Jumped into the house
And stole it all away.

Print your flash cards:

Parrot, toast, mouse, jump.

Sarah learned her first 10 signs at six month and it made our lives much easier. Instead of screaming, she could tell us when she was hungry, thirsty, or tired. She learned another 50 signs by nine months and that was a blast. Now she is talking much earlier than the other children in her preschool and we think it is because of her signing.

We can’t imagine missing out on all the little things she shared with baby sign language. Thank You!
