This forum can be a relief sometimes! That's so funny--I totally remember thinking why on earth would anyone need baby sign classes? I thought the whole concept was so silly-- why not just have an actual conversation with your baby instead? smile Thankfully I didn't say that out loud to my Mom's group. It really is nice that this was typical experience for a lot of kids/parents on this forum. Heehee

Love the comments about looking at the whole child, not just how smart they are. I need to keep hearing that. One of the reasons I like my DD's play based preschool is that she's developing socially, which is fun to see.
