We are back! Rachel made it safely and just in time to help deliver a baby! For those of you who don’t know what I am talking about, you can follow Rachel’s weekend adventure on her blog. She just installed twitter, where she can write little tidbits of her day. The Willamette Valley Down Syndrome Buddy Walk in Salem, OR was a huge success. If I had to estimate, I would say there were about 1,200-1,300 people at the event. All the children were so excited to see Rachel and had a chance to meet her before she performed. We …

Hi Everyone…we had a fantastic day visiting with Salem Heights Elementary School yesterday. Rachel was able to go to the kindergarten class and so a Signing Time Story hour. Then we went over to the Salem Heights Assembly Hall and did a performance for the whole school. It was amazing. All the children knew Signing Time and sang with Rachel at the top of their lungs.

Baby Signing Time 3 & 4 Reviews

By / 4 minutes of reading

Sally S. West Valley, UT The new volumes of Baby Signing Time are absolutely wonderful! My son loved the new songs and was up dancing around the room with Rachel. He absolutely loved “Opposites” song and game. We had to play that one over and over for him, and we’ve been singing it around the house ever since watching it. It’s great because it teaches him the opposites too! He was very excited for the new DVDs and really enjoyed them. They are great for my husband and I too; they are fun and easy to interact with. The “Strollin” …
