best books 4 month old baby image
Paul
Has anyone had good success teaching a baby sign language using one of the numerous books on the subject? Can anyone recommend a book for it? I have a 4 month old baby girl.
Answer
We started signing with our daughter when she was around 6 months. We weren't really doing it consistently. It was more like when we remembered. We started with eat, milk, more and all done. She started signing back at about 10 months, though babies do understand it for awhile before they are able to sign back. Now at 12 months, she's been picking up more signs, mostly to do with food and eating.
I have the book "Baby Talk" by Monica Beyer. I found it pretty good. It has tips on when to use signs and is easy and understandable read.

I also used the internet though. You can find out any sign you want to use. Just search for ASL and the word you want to sign.

What are some good toys for a 4-month old baby?
LaPiquine
I've got twin girls and they will be 4 months old next week. What are some good (but not overly expensive) toys for their age? They were born almost a month early so they are a bit slow to catch up with some things, they don't turn over by themselves yet. But they're starting to grab things and put them in their mouth now. What are good toys to engage them and develop skills when they are so young? I don't know anything about babies!
Answer
My baby loved soft colorful toys that made noise. Like squeaks and tunes.
He loved for me to read him hard card board books and especially like the ones with buttons you can push for sound.
A lot of the car seat toys kept him happy, so I bought some of those and just let him lay and play with those.
There really are so many options out there. Babies-R-Us was a great resource.
