Shirt

Shirt is a really easy sign. It is just you pulling at your shirt. To sign shirt, pinch your shirt between your thumb and index finger, then tug at the shirt.

SIGN USAGE

Do the shirt sign as you put on your baby's shirt. We make a game out of dressing and undressing by making the signs for each item as we put it on and take it off. Playing the game seems to decrease fussiness around changing clothes, perhaps because it helps give our baby some way to have some say in what is happening.

Flash Card

We can introduce the sign for shirt early on. As soon as our babies demonstrate interest in dressing and undressing, we can sign shirt contextually and also by pointing to a flash card.
