Alena’s Story

Being in Customer Service I have the privilege of reading the awesome stories that our fans send to us.  Here is one that I would like to share with you.  I am constantly overjoyed at how Signing Time continues to be a bright spot in the lives of children and families in helping them to communicate with each other.  So many of you have touched my heart!

Meet Alena

I am writing this through a world of tears, because I can’t possibly thank you enough for what just happened in my house!  About a month ago, my sister bought my (now) 5-year-old daughter Volume One of Signing Time. She loves watching it, almost non-stop.  Well, today, she made her first sign, “Eat”. Instead of screaming at me or throwing a tantrum, she could tell me what she wanted! Followed closely by “drink”!

Alena is severely autistic, and until today, communication between us has been non-existent. Thank you! Thank you so much for doing what a trained speech and language pathologist hasn’t been able to do for 3 years!

Sincerely,
Jennifer

Our staff loves to hear how Signing Time has impacted your lives so – keep those testimonials coming!

I have four daughters (lucky I guess ;-) ) and our third daughter Madie has a genetic disorder. A few years ago we were introduced to Signing Time through some of Madie’s therapists. Madie immediately hooked onto Signing Time and absorbed it like a sponge. She previously was talking very little so Signing Time helped our family learn the basics of ASL so we could communicate with Madie.
