Spring and Easter Signs

St. Patrick's Day

Hi! I started getting ready for St. Patrick's Day today. I will definitely wear green - I don't want to get pinched! Here's a picture of me all dressed up in my green St. Patrick's Day gear! Don't I look cool in my glasses?

Some signs for St. Patrick's day are green, leprechaun, clover, rainbow, hat. Click on the words to see the signs!

Hope to see you at Baby Play and Sign this Saturday! We'll do some fun things for St. Patrick's day like search for clover, sign the colors of the rainbow, and put green hats on the stuffed animals!

Happy signing!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Just wanted to share a little Valentine's video from Signing Time:

Happy New Year!
