I work with a very diverse population and am introducing many new moms to baby sign language. I found these flash cards to be help but it did amaze me that all the photos of people are of only one race ex. (flash cards of; girl, again, happy, grandmother, grandfather, daddy, happy, laugh, sad, mommy, kiss, quiet, excited. I think it would be even more beneficial if they were more reflective of the all the different people that may be using them.

We are always welcoming submissions from our Facebook community. If you have a photo of little ones signing that will best represent your working group please send it our way and we will incorporate it to our blog. In the next few months we will be adding additional flashcards with representation for several cultural groups. We are so glad you are here and appreciate your feedback and engagement.

I truly appreciate the fact you make your materials available for us to use however I feel compelled to provide feedback about something. The photos used on your flashcards do not depict a variety of cultures. In today’s programs we want to connect with a wide cross culture of people and it’s important to use multi-cultural materials. I hope to see a cross section of multi cultural representation in your materials soon. Thanks,
Chelley Correa

ADMIN – Hi Chelley,

Thanks for you feedback. We would like to make the materials as accessible as possible to anyone that is interested in learning Baby Sign Language. As part of that mission, we would like to depict many different cultures. For example in our books you will see a variety of races, ages, and genders represented in the diagrams.

The downloadable flash cards are not very diverse. We would like to show more diversity in the flash cards as you suggest. One challenge is that we use a lot of stock photography, and stock photography is not particularly diverse. If you or anyone else has more diverse high quality imagery we can use, it would be greatly appreciated.
