When we heard that Signing Time was looking for children ages 3 and under who love to sign, we decided to make an audition video. Elly had so much she wanted to keep making videos, hence 3 videos (actually there are 6)! The first video is her actual Signing Time audition video. Signing has been invaluable in Elly’s language development and in our audition video, Elly is signing with Rachel’s teaching video and she reads many of the words before Rachel says/signs them! I love how Signing Time also promotes literacy skills. Read here to read about the many benefits of signing for all children.

In this second video, Elly is dancing, singing and signing to the Signing Time Theme song. Near the end of the video it is great how she signs “play” behind her back so that her dad can see!

I’m in tears. What an amazing little girl you have. I would give anything for my E to have one third of her words.
What a proud mama you must be.
I hope she gets a spot on Signing Times.
