I read somewhere that 6-7 months was a good time to start sign language with our LO's. Is anyone else planning/already doing this? How's it going?

I found this which I thought was cute, helpful, and a good start.

I have been doing "up" the last couple of weeks and last week he started recognizing it because he kicks and gets excited when I do it. I will probably start doing more and milk this week.

Thanks for sharing Shay. I think it would be helpful; I just didn't know where to start

I found it easiest for me to try one new sign...until I get it down...then go to another.

We have done "milk" for about 3 months now and they get excited when they see us do it. We plan on just doing the basics (milk, more, sleep, all done, etc.). It is definitely a cool thing to learn. We did the same with Olivia and she still remembers most of the signs.
