ok the third dvd is harder than any of the two since most of it requires to use both hands. and some of them even have two motions (i.e. bee).

my daughter is almost 17 months old. she has not mastering the use of her finger yet but she still tried her best to follow the instruction =p

included in the DVD these signs:
Frog, pig, water, rain, snow, slide, swing, bug, bee, banana, juice, white, black, yellow, purple, red, sand, orange, blue, turtle, grass, cookies, cloud, and on addition in the tutorial section such as: happy, sad, angry, excited, surprised, scared, hurt, and questioning color.

Great DVD! I am hoping they will produce the next series.

I have been using the My Baby Can Talk products with my son since he was 9 months old, and now at 22 months, Haven has an extensive sign (75 + words) AND verbal vocabulary! He even introduced himself to another child at the park last week, much to my own amazment! I give so much credit to My Baby Can Talk, for the effective and entertaining approach each DVD takes to Baby Signing!! I truly think this early approach at communication has done nothing but good things for our family!

We were invited to a join in a pre-release viewing of the newest MY BABY CAN TALK DVD, and couldn't be happier with what we saw! Since Haven is speaking so well already I was concerned that he wouldn't have as much interest in the newest DVD "Exploring Signs" but I couldn't wait to put it to the test...and boy did it ever prove me wrong!! Haven was so engaged! He was saying the words with the DVD and attempting most all the new signs! He loved the DVD so much he asked to watch it again as soon as it was over...and has repeatedly ask to watch it daily since the first time he viewed it! He calls it his "Cloud" movie, as that is his favorite sign! :) The signs were very practical for the every day world of a Toddler! Everything was very recognizable to him, and this kept his interest peeked. The rhyme rhythms the newest "Exploring Signs" uses are such a treat to both toddler AND mom! They are easy to remember and use even in day to day conversations with my child.

Not only is the baby/toddler portion of the dvd a hit, but I found the parent tutorial extremely helpful and full of even more signs and approaches to try myself! From beginning to end this DVD exceeds all expectations! It's a MUST have for anyone beginning to sign or already experienced in signing with their baby!

My daughter (18 months now!) loves this series. She laughs and claps whenever I put it on.
We started showing her the series at about 7 months but she didn't get interested until about 13 months. I was shocked at how quickly she began making signs at that point.
Her verbal skills are expanding rapidly at this point but her pronunciation is still horrible - like most toddlers, only mommy and daddy can understand what she says. Signing lets her get her point across much more easily so she feels far less frustrated.
This third volume has the basic color signs in it and has been very helpful in teaching my daughter the concept of colors as well as the verbal words and signs.

I am writing to tell you how much my daughter, Campbell, loves your third DVD in the My Baby Can Talk series. We have been watching the movie almost daily because she loves the DVD and she likes to sign the word "slide" and watch the toy animals work themselves up the ladder and down the slide. She signs "slide" and says the word. She is working hard at trying to learn all the signs and doing a great job of trying to master the signs. Some with her own little twist! She is really enjoying the movie and I can't be happier!

I can't tell you how wonderful it is to see her so excited when she remembers a sign or uses a sign while reading a book or going for a walk to let me know what she is seeing and what she would like to do. Campbell is going to turn two years old soon and it's been wonderful teaching her sign language. It has made communications with her so much easier and stronger. Since she is using more language skills and trying to talk; when she is trying to find the words to express herself, I remind her to use her signs and then she isn't so frustrated!! And neither are we!! She is also a budding little artist, so the learning the color signs, such as red, yellow or blue, has been a wonderful addition into our art time together! Thank you so much for creating such an educational and wonderful product. I keep recommending your DVDs and website to people where ever we go , and I highly recommend its use to new moms and dads(and so do Campbell's Grandparents!). Thank you again and I look forward to more wonderful products from you in the future!

I continue to be amazed at how quickly and easily my children learn from the My Baby Can Talk videos! I started signing with my son who had a speech delay, and it really helped ease both of our frustrations. Then my daughter came along and started watching the videos as a baby. She not only picked up the signs right away, but was saying the words along too. Now her spoken vocabulary is at twice her age. This video, Exploring Signs, has taken their signing up a level with the addition of color adjectives; they are now putting 2 and 3 signs together! The videos are a tremendous language and vocabulary resource for all children. The format is fun, engaging and it really works! I have seen the results, and I highly recommend signing with the My Baby Can Talk series!

I had already seen this video and wanted a copy for my own use with my toddler grandchildren. They love watching it and we all enjoy the power they get from mastering new words. An excellent tool.

I can't say enough good things about these movies. My son has been watching the first two My Baby Can Talk DVDs since he was 5 months old and still watches them--this is a new addition we got to add to his vocabulary. He was 15 months when I got it and I think it's the perfect age for this particular DVD. Some of the signs are little more difficult and require more finger coordination. The movie was slow enough for him to learn, but definitely not boring. I'm also a fan of the classical background music. My son really hasn't watched any other signing movies except for a Little Einstein that had some signing in it, so I can't really compare how this one stacks up to the rest. However, I will say through watching these DVDs, he has been signing since 11 months and is now 17 months. As he is now learning to talk, he often says words while signing them at the same time, and because "toddler talk" can be difficult to understand sometimes, it has really helped me to get an idea of what he's trying to say. It reduces a lot of his frustration and allows me to both praise him and assist him in pronouncing his words correctly. I'm sure there would be many a time I would have no idea what he was trying to say otherwise- especially if there is nothing to point to. All-in-all I highly recommend this movie as well as the first two. My husband is very impressed and thinks I'm some sort of super mom for teaching him sign language, but really he and I are just learning together. It has really been a great experience and I wish I would have done this with my other three children.

We bought to sets for two families. Both children are not quite two. Their attention is complete when the videos are playing. Signing is a game for them, but useful in clarifying what they want as well. The classical music is well produced, as are the visual effects, writing and editing.

I just love this whole colletion. My Daughter picked it up so fast and she'd beg to watch it all the time sometimes twice a day. She loves the music and we also used it in conjuntion with your baby can read and it really set the reading off as well because she could sign the words before she could say them. really I can't say enough good things about this video. Worth Every Penny!

A good group of words of interest to an older baby. Even a few I didn't know, plus variations of some I knew. My babe liked it and she signs the words back.
