We started with DD at 4 months with the milk sign and at 5 months she was signing back! I was SO surprised because I've heard that most babies usually don't sign back until 8-10 months. As far as starting, many say that 6 months is a good time to start. But I don't think it's ever too soon to start b/c babies that are deaf/hard of hearing or have parents that are start signing from day 1. kwim?

I'm looking for some more resources myself because DD has already picked up on it. I'm looking for basic 1 handed signs to start off with.

Have fun with it!
