RESEARCH

The research completed on Baby Signing started in 1987 by Joseph Garcia, who studied the effects on babies at Alaska Pacific University. This research showed that signing eases frustration, helps babies to communicate and that signs are picked up easily at around 6 months or so. In 2009, Mr. Garcia commented at a conference that Kiddisign attended, that new research is showing signs are communicated from 0 months onwards!

Between 1987 and 2009, Dr. Linda Acredolo and Dr. Susan Goodwin, University of California at Davis, studied signing with small babies through to 8 years of age. They now have over 20 years of research papers, showing that in babies who sign, there is greater verbal language development, higher IQ’s, a baby will share it’s world more, eases frustration and increases parent-child bond.

In 2007, Dr. Gwyneth Doherty-Sneddon, Stirling University in Scotland, found that it helped very small children to communicate, eased child and parent frustration and helped toddlers develop socially acceptable behaviour.

Other studies continue and new research is showing that older babies are able to sign the alphabet! It is amazing that sign language can be added into a child’s life on a daily basis which aids their development.
