Free Sign And Sing Along: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star Ebooks Online
Children are able to communicate by signing before they develop the skills necessary for speech. By teaching simple sign language to children from as young as eight months, we can help them to convey their emotions and their needs. When children begin to talk, having sign language to fall back on provides a comforting safety net. Add to the fun of signing by singing well-known nursery rhymes and songs. Even proficient speakers will long enjoy signing to a favourite song or rhyme. Simple and clear signing instructions allow anyone to join in.

"Get your fingers ready to twinkle..."That's how storytime begins with this book, which will encourage active participation even in babies who aren't signing.Very cute pictures of babies and helpful captions for parents on the pictures of signs make this a book you will enjoy together again and again.The series is slightly inconsistent in that only one book - Itsy Bitsy Spider - features a lovely REVIEW of signs on the back page (maybe they had an extra page because that song is short?). I found the review very helpful, and wished the other books in the series had one, too...it gives the baby yet another signing sing-along opportunity!Still, I think Twinkle Twinkle is her favourite of all these books, and we have had many MANY requests to read it in just the few weeks it's been here.Recommended for ages 1-2 only, as it's a very basic song that older toddlers will probably not sit still for for long.
My now 14-month-old daughter has loved this book since we first read it to her at 9 months. She absolutely loves the illustrations, as well as the repetitive nature of the song/book. My daughter now signs the entire song, as do I. I love that she finds signing the song a great comfort, and sometimes signs it over and over as she is falling asleep.This book is a definite keeper to be loved and cherished. I can't wait to buy the rest of the books in this series! I hope they come out with many, many more.
For some reason, I guess because it says 'sing along', I thought the book made noise. It doesn't, it's just a regular picture book. That's fine, and it's cute and sturdy but not quite what I was looking for.
This book and the other sign and sing along were the perfect gift for me deaf nephew. He loves them. The only odd part of the books is that I had to sign upon delivery, which I've never had to do with Prime before or since then. Would purchase more if they had them!
my husband is loosing his hearing and we are trying to teach our children sign language. This book was an excellent teaching tool for my four year old who now knows almost the whole song in sign language. Thanks for the help
My toddler is now able to sign along with me as I sing this song! She's loved it from 13 months, and is constantly bringing this (and her other sing along books) to me for playtime. I like that the illustrations are BIG and the text (in this case, the lyrics) are easy for her to follow along. The sign for "star" is somewhat vague (my husband and I were wondering if it's two hands in unison, or alternating up and down motions), but we've figured it out. Toddler will request it by doing the "twinkle twinkle" sign -- in the car, on the potty, in the bath, in the kitchen...you get the idea.
I wanted to sing a lot of these classic songs with my daughter, but it had been so long since I'd done them (my own toddlerdom) that I had forgotten many of them. This book has all the ones I remember plus more. It is a great afternoon or mid-morning activity for rainy or cold days. It also reinforces baby-signing if that is something you are doing with your child (we have kind of faltered in that area).
As I said in another review, my son loves music and reading so the two together is great. However, with this book, its too much to try to do the sign language, sing, hold the book, AND hold/sit w/ my son. Perhaps it will be better when he's older and can see the signs to do it himself.
