Bread

Signing: Bread in baby sign language looks like you are cutting sliced from a loaf of bread. Bread is signed with your weak hand open and palm facing your body to make the imaginary loaf of bread. You strong hand makes a series of vertical cutting motions in front of the bread.

Usage: Bread is a good early sign for babies that enjoy eating bread. Being able to communicate when they are hungry and having a craving is highly motivating for them to learn the sign and start using it. You can give baby their bread in lots of small pieces to give you more opportunities to make the sign as you hand baby each piece.
