Baby Signs(R) Parent Workshop (14 Feb, 2.30pm)

Fabulous Mom and Baby Signs Malaysia are co-conducting a Parent Workshop. A one-time 2-hour instructional event designed to introduce parents (and parents to be) who would like to communicate with the baby in their life before they can talk, to the Baby Signs® Program of infant communication. It is geared for adults looking to teach signs to babies aged 0 to 2 ½ years or toddlers who have communication delays. In this Workshop, you will be taught everything you need to know to get started with the Baby Signs® Program.

Each participant will receive a Parent Kit or Complete Starter Kit, which costs RM180. The Parent Workshop fee is RM250 per participant (inclusive of Kit). For every additional participant (e.g. if your husband would like to attend with you), the additional cost is RM50.
If you would like to sign up for our Workshop, you can do so by filling in our On-Line Registration Form. We require a prior registration of 3 days. To assure yourself a seat, we suggest that you sign up as soon as possible.

Event: 17 Jan - Communicating with Your Babies/Toddlers

Ever wonder what your baby is thinking? Or why your baby is crying?

Very soon your baby will be looking for ways to share his or her thoughts, feelings, and new discoveries with you. However, trying to communicate without words can be very frustrating!

Using the Baby Signs® Program gives babies a way to “talk” with their parents, before they can talk. Babies can communicate about the world around them, long before they have mastered their verbal speaking skills!

Babies and their parents can use simple signs to communicate important things – like being hungry or thirsty, hot or cold, afraid or sad – often a full year before babies could otherwise speak.

Research has proven that using the Baby Signs® Program with babies has dramatic benefits, including decreasing frustration for babies and parents, enriching the parent-child bond, boosting emotional development, helping babies talk sooner – even raising IQ.

Speaker's Profile - Ms. Natasha Yong:

Working with children and teenagers for the past 5 years has truly been an experience. It has encouraged me to find out how they become who they are, by going back to their roots, i.e. how they were raised.

When my daughter, Monica was born I was curious and wanted to know how to guide her in all aspects of her development. This encouraged me to sign up for a Certificate in Childhood Development in April 2008. Through my studies, as I was surfing the internet, I found out that in America parents were teaching their babies to sign as a form of communication.

Having already had a background in Sign Language, I decided to teach Monica on my own but there was no structure to my teaching methods. Then I came across BSM and its products, and it gave me everything I needed.

Monica is now 16 months old and she can sign and say about 90 words. This ability to communicate with my baby daughter has brought us many, many joyous moments. It is my hope to be able to get others to experience this as well and with that in mind I have decided to become an Independent Certified Instructor for the Baby Signs® Programs.
