Sign of the Week - FRUIT

The Sign of the Week is FRUIT.  To make this sign, twist the "F" hand at side of chin. (F is made by touching index finger to thumb to form a circle.)

This is the perfect time of year to teach the sign for FRUIT. FRUIT stands, farmer's markets, even the local grocery store will provide you plenty of opportunities to practice the sign, FRUIT. The next time your baby is hungry ask her if she wants some FRUIT.

Tip - Put out a fruit bowl:  Just seeing this poster of fruit makes me want to eat some!  By the same principle, to get your family to eat more fruit, put out the fruit in a fruit bowl and hide the candy and sweets in the fridge.  Out of sight, out of mind!

Happy signing and fruit eating!
