We have always done a bit of sign language. I have a few books and recently discovered "Signing Time" DVD series. I can not say enough about this program. Fun & easy to learn.

I ordered this curriculum about 3 years ago and really loved the layout, activities, book selections, and even the workbooks (I am not a work book kind of girl).
