What is the sign for guinea pig please???
ADMIN – Hi Judith,
Afraid I don’t know Guinea Pig, and I couldn’t find it in my dictionary – often less used signs like Guinea Pig are finger spelled. I would substitute another easy to perform sign like mouse.
Do you have a sign for Guitar? Thank you!
ADMIN – Hi Jessica,
We have added guitar. Thank you for making the suggestion.
Is there a sign for helicopter? My one year old loves them.
ADMIN – Hi Kristin,
We added helicopter. Thank you for suggesting the addition, it is a fun sign!
Hi! I teach one-year-olds and I LOVE your illustrations! I was wondering if you had one for eat/food? I know the sign, but I would love to put it on the wall where our children eat as a reference for them! Thanks!
ADMIN – Hi Lyndsey,
I can’t believe we missed eat the first time around. We will be adding another 800 signs in the next two months and “eat” will definitely be among them.
How do you know the sign for god and jesus.

http://www.signingsavvy.com/sign/HELP here you are
The right ’2′ hand is twisted around, and then the tip of the thumb hand of the right ’5′ hand is placed against the right cheek. (The signer may make the two signs in reverse order.)
Here you are!
Hi, could you tell me the sign ‘to be picked up/carried or held ‘ many thanks.
ADMIN – Hi Kelly,
Most people use the sign for “up” to indicate being picked up or carried.
Hi, do you know the sign for ‘help’? I think that would be really helpful lol.
ADMIN – Hi Kate,
Help looks like a thumbs up sitting on top of your hand. Then move both hands upward. It is like you are giving someone a big thumbs up for helping you. You will find it in the dictionary.
I saw the post you are adding about 800 more signs…. that is great! I was going to suggest a few but it sounds like you have them covered. I look forward to seeing them. Having a person show you through your video clips is so much easier than reading a sign through pictures. Thank you for this great tool. Will you be selling a video in the future? If so, may I suggest having the adult sign and then a young child sign it as well so the adult learning can see the difference in physical skills levels so they more easily recognize their own childs attempt at the sign. Your website is the most user friendly I have found.
Thanks for this great resource. I’m the owner of a small child care in SE Portland, OR and my adoptive baby daughter is facing some language challenges. Your site is very helpful. Is there a sign for help? I find that teaching kids to ask for help reduces tantrums and frustration. Thanks!
“Gentle” would be a great sign to have here.
ADMIN – Hi Nyssa.
We have added gentle to the dictionary. Thanks for suggesting it.
I would love to teach my son the sign for “home”. Could you add this one? Thanks!
ADMIN – Hi Erin,
We have added home to the baby sign language dictionary. Thanks for making the suggestion.
What about a sign for “wash” or “clean” for after meals when they need their faces washed? And also “help” and “down”? I think my daughter would be a lot happier if she could communicate those things.
ADMIN – Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for the suggestions. We have added those signs to the dictionary.
