Looking for a fun alternative to foreign language? 

Perhaps you’re jus t curious about signing as a fun enrichment program?  Kids LOVE t o sign!

Sign language is a joyful expression and offers a worl d of brain benefits.  It’s a great precursor to foreign language because it stimulates the language area of the brain. 

And research s hows that learning to sign has other advantages: heightened awareness, impr ovement of reading/vocabulary skills and complex patterns, and greater visu al/spatial perception (believed to help with driving skills). And while it’ s good for the brain, it also cultivates the heart - promoting compassion for the deaf and hard of heari ng community. Plus, signing is JUST PLAIN FUN!
