Happy Halloween!

BeeBo and I had so much fun celebrating Halloween at Our Little World yesterday! We read Halloween books, learned Halloween signs, and played in our mini haunted house. Thank you to all of you who came! You can watch this video from Signing Time to review some Halloween signs. Hope you have a wonderful Halloween today! Stop by the Living Desert and visit our friend Dusty Blue Socks and Dunebilly at the Living Desert today if you can. Should be lots of fun!

Halloween Sign - Afraid

Halloween can be scary at times for little ones. Give your child a way to tell you that they are scared by teaching them the sign for AFRAID. Move your hands over body as if you are protecting it. Click on the picture to download a free poster of this sign.

Watch this video with your baby and learn the sign for AFRAID. Learning to identify and express feelings helps babies get a healthy head start in their social and emotional development!

Halloween Sign - Spider

With all the spiders around in nature or in Halloween decorations and stories, giving children the sign for Spider will provide them a way to "talk" to you about what they see! Place one hand over the other hand and wiggle your eight fingers like the eight legs of a spider. This sign is great for teaching children how many legs a spider has!
