O.K. so someone posted this on Facebook and I took the idea and modified it a little bit. 

Take any paper plate (preferably one more "Halloween-looking" than mine) and find a good background picture from the web. You can find the outline of a little ghost the same way. Take a long piece of scotch tape and drape it across the front of the picture so it's just touching the outer edges of the plate and not the middle. Then stick your ghost to it and you have your little craft. It's called "Ghost Caught on Tape". Get it? Ha!

Happy Signing,

Tina

Individual Classes

Due to conflicting schedules, this year was challenging regarding good class times

at class locations. And add in the many different nap times, etc. more classes didn't make this year

than did last year.

If you wanted a class this year but it didn't happen for you, please contact me directly and

I will go to your home with a parent kit and spend 30 to 45 minutes showing

you tips to get started. Then later if a class makes you can join and will only have to

If you know you won't be joining a class later (child is about to age out, etc.)

I will spend a little more time and bring more printed material and charge a little

more for that.

Are you the parent of a baby or toddler and you are frustrated and overwhelmed because you can't understand what your child is so emphatically trying to tell you?

Baby SignsŪ Instructor Tina Cavanaugh is here to help you break the communication barrier! With a few signs, babies as young as seven or eight months are able to express their needs, wants, feelings and even memories. Doing this strengthens the infant/parent bond early and gives your child a jump-start toward speaking and early literacy.

With 10 years of sign language training and five years teaching Baby Signs classes, Tina shows parents how to be amazed and thrilled over and over as their baby or toddler begins to share their world with them. Being involved in a process that builds confidence and good self-esteem early in children is huge and the stories that parents share with Tina about their success is pure joy for her.

The play classes go far beyond just learning a few signs. Parents go home with information about how their baby learns and develops intellectually and emotionally through those all-imporant first few years of their lives. Come join the fun that everyone's talking about! Daytime play classes or evening parent workshops are available. If you don't see one on the calendar, contact Tina and tell her you're interested in a class.
