TinyTalkTinyTalk Leeds 

Ever wondered what your baby was thinking? Have you ever asked them why they were crying? ...What if they could tell you?  

At TinyTalk we help children to communicate, as babies we teach them to use their hands to sign and as they grow into confident toddlers we help encourage their speech with a variety of language games.

 

Babies are able to use their hands to wave and clap long before they can vocalise clearly what they want, signing takes that one step further so they can tell you when they want their milk, want to go home or that they have just seen a bird out of the window.

Our baby classes teach over 150 signs (based on BSL) in a fun, accessible way through singing, pictures, props and puppets. We also encourage early literacy skills by signing along to books and have various sensory activities designed to encourage all aspects of development. The toddler classes are just as much fun, with colourful parachutes, books, instruments and all sorts of language activities.
 

All classes are an hour long, with half an hour of structured teaching and half an hour of social time - so children  can play and make friends of their own, while the adults have a well-earned biscuit and a chat.

Just because tinsel is on the tree and the weather grows ever colder, swimming with your baby still provides one of the best forms of exercise for both of you. Not only is it a great way to play and fantastic for strengthening the bond between the two of you, it will also introduce them to a lifelong love of staying healthy and fit. And it's just as perfect for cold winter days as it is for hot summer ones.

 

It's never too early to take your baby to the pool, as long as the water's warm enough. Water Babies, the UK's leading baby & toddler swim school, takes babies from birth - their youngest ever client was just one day old - with classes in warm water and hydrotherapy pools, which are just like stepping into a giant bath tub. And while lessons are fun for both grownups and little ones, they'll also help your child learn a potentially lifesaving skill.

 

So the next time granny or granddad asks what they can buy your little one for Christmas, why not ask them for a Water Babies course? A unique gift that will really make a difference, it's undoubtedly one of the best presents you could find under the Christmas tree this year! 

 

Water Babies classes run across the UK, visit www.waterbabies.co.uk to find a class near you. Follow Water Babies on Twitter and Facebook too!
