The My Baby Can Talk™ board book series includes three books that teach babies and parents to communicate at an early age, reducing frustration and creating a special bond that is so important for healthy child development. My Baby Can Talk teaches babies and parents American Sign Language (ASL) in a format that delights the senses while tapping into a baby’s natural language abilities.

Babies are able to communicate at a much earlier age than they are able to speak. Research has shown that babies who use sign language tend to speak sooner with larger vocabularies, show an increase in IQ scores and engage in more sophisticated play.
