Quiet

Signing: To sign quiet, bring your index finger to your lips. (The universal shhh sign)
Note: this is an abbreviated version of the full ASL sign for quiet. The full version is a two-part sign, where you cross your hands and then release for the second part of the sign.

Usage: Quiet is a really useful sign for older babies. It is great to be able to get even older kids to pipe down when you are perhaps in a library without needing too yell across the room. Project calm when signing quiet.
