Our school is currently using Signing Time in an after school program to introduce and teach American Sign Language to children ranging in grades K-6. Rachel does a good job of desribing and demonstating the signs. The music and songs create an enjoyable way to reinforce the new signs learned.

As the mother of twins, one hearing and one deaf, I have had the opportunity to check out many programs for teaching ASL to small children. This is by far the best series out there. Most other products are so boring that parents must struggle to stay awake during the production, and there is no way a toddler would tolerate a viewing. My 2-year-old twins request Signing Time all of the time. At home they want the DVDs playing almost constantly. In the car my hearing daughter starts asking for the Signing Time CD before I even have her strapped into her carseat. My 2-year-old deaf daughter is using 5-sign sentences, which is almost unheard of for the deaf child of hearing parents. My extended family owns a total of 6 sets of Signing Time. Whenever my daughters' cousins have a birthday they ask for the latest Signing Time DVDs. Children of all ages love this product.

Signing Time is my 5yr olds favorite videos. We have been using them for over 4 yrs. In the beginning we used them to increase communication for my baby. Now she is using them for fun and to teach Mom new signs. I suggest that for younger kiddos, namely the under 3, The Baby Signing Time are a good, fun, introduction to basic signs. Vol 13: Welcome to School helped alleviate any fears my daughter had about school. Not only was she learning tons of new signs, she used them to teach her fellow PK classmates. The songs are catchy and the videos are fun and engaging.

YOU MUST GET THIS! My 2 year old is signing like crazy but my 1 year old has been signing for several months. The music, the video, and the signs are first rate. Don't make a mistake and think this isn't worth getting. There isn't a better video on the market. WE LOVE IT. The problem is that we want more and can't get them.

I will write this on all the videos of this series that we purchased because it is incredible.

My two and a half year old loves this and it has helped him to get more interested in coloring and writing and crafty projects with scissors and glue. The songs are good. This and Leah's farm and time to eat are our favorites.

Each and every one of Signing Time dvd's are outstanding. My grandaughter has been watching and signing with Rachael for many many months. If you are concerned about the cost, I can attest the series is worth every penny!

After watching this DVD my daughter at 18 months walks around and does school related signs as if she goes to school herself. She loves it! The 'Hello backpack' song is great and helps you remember the signs with ease.

Basic signs but well worth it. My child is "lazy" at his signs but this makes it fun and entertaining. I very much enjoy this series. Well worth the money.

We have been working with Signing Time in my daycare for about 9 months. All children can excel with this program. "Welcome to School" was one of the best yet. We look forward to getting more once they are on the market.

My daughter has learned so many signs with these videos. She absolutely loves watching them and they are interactive so you don't have to worry about your child becoming a little zombie.
