SUMMARY:Sign with Katy (Ages 0-3)
DESCRIPTION:Join Katy as she teaches basic ASL vocabulary to you and your little one. Learning ASL is a great way for babies to learn to communicate their wants and needs with caregivers before gaining the ability to speak. ASL also unlocks language capabilities for babies and helps them build valuable skills that help with language and literacy abilities later in life. Each presentation is different\, so be sure to come to each Sign With Katy session. This class is intended for caregivers and their infants aged 0-3 years.\nRegister on the CAPL website!
