early learning signs


Tiny Hands Talk - ‘Early Learning Signs’ is a program for for:

  • Parents & teachers of hearing children 5-7 years old.

  • Parents, caregivers & teachers of children from a non English speaking background

  • Parents, caregivers & teachers of children who have any communication difficulties

Recent studies indicate that hearing children who are exposed to speech and sign language while learning literacy and mathematics have an educational advantage.

By signing, you are combining a visually rich language with kinetic movement and aural sound using more components, fostering whole brain development, memory and recall creating a fun and captivating learning experience for all children.
