Language helps us make sense of the world. Babies understand so much before they can talk, so using signs encourages early word play, language development and comprehension. Clear step-by-step instructions are given for parents, beginning with starter signs and then continuing through signs for mealtime, clothes, animals and so on. It's really fulfilling for both parent and baby at such an early and important stage in development. And best of all, babies who understand and are understood are happy babies.

Katie Mayne has spent all her working life as a teacher, first of primary age children and then as a specialist Teacher of the Deaf. Her passion for the use of signing with hearing babies grew out of her own observations gathered as part of her post graduate studies. In June 2003 she gave birth to her second child, Lucy. Needless to say, Lucy is now signing away with her family.
Katie is married to Fergus and lives in Guildford, Surrey, with Harry and Lucy.
