Baby Storytime
(See Baby Storytime Outline for Typical Agenda)
This week we shared the letter I and the signs for I Love You! There are two ways to do this sign: For the first way to sign I Love You, put up your thumb, index finger and pinkie finger, while keeping your ring finger and your middle finger down. Hold the hand out, palm facing away from you and move it back and forth slightly. For the second way to sign I Love You, point to yourself, cross your arms over your chest, then point to person.
