First Signs Book - Jenna Brockett
Children understand hundreds of words and concepts before they can communicate verbally, and teaching basic signs to children benefits both them and their parents by providing a means of communication before and during speech development.
“First Signs” from Jenna Brockett gets you started with key signs to help you communicate with your little one, easing frustration (for everyone!) by giving them a means to express their wants and needs.
You can begin introducing signs as early as you want (the earlier you do means more practice for you!), but studies show babies as young as six months old can remember and recognise a sign. By eight months some children are able to imitate gestures or communicate using simple one-word signs.
First Signs, a New Zealand Sign Language book in Te Reo Māori and English, contains 13 New Zealand Sign Language signs with details and illustrations on how to do them.

This is a great first book to give to babies. It has one word per page presented in English, Te Reo and Sign Language. A great way to introduce language through action, and it must be pretty cool to be able to say that your baby is trilingual. The parents were very excited to receive it.
Tino Miiharo ki tenei pukapuka!
I seen a friend use this book with her Pepe ! And he knows all of the signs! It’s a great way to help our kids who can’t yet talk communicate their feelings !
