Great Learning Tool for Babies and ParentsJan 14, 2010
By Cayla Garcia We loved Volumes 1&2, and Vol 3 was seriously lacking. We were hesitant to get Volume 4 because 3 was so disappointing, but it's just as upbeat, fun, and useful as the first two. I think of the four Baby Signing Time DVDs that we own, Vol 4 is the favorite. If you're looking into getting any of these DVDs, I would suggest buying Vols 1,2 and 4.

Best of the seriesJan 24, 2010
By A. Cauler This is my favorite video of the series. My son (18 months) seems to like this one best as well since he actually sticks around to watch most of it. As far as songs go, volume 4 is the best of the series. The songs are very catchy...in fact, we downloaded the album as well. The signs build on those in volume 1 and 2. I would start with those two volumes first as those signs are most likely to be used (milk, eat, bath, etc.) The signs in volume 4 are more geared towards playtime (share, play, nice, music, phone, balloon, bubbles, game), eating (apple, peach, pear) and feelings (happy, sad, laugh, cry).
My son started watching this series when he was 9 months old. He can now produce almost all the signs he has seen in these videos. It helps us understand what he wants when he doesn't know how to say the word for something. I would highly recommend this series to anyone with a baby or toddler.

Sharing is CaringMar 31, 2011
By Karen We received this video about a week ago. We bought it for our 17 month old son. We have the first three volumes of Baby Signing Time, and wanted to get this last one in the series. I think that this DVD is a bit advanced for our son right now. Some of the concepts that it goes into, such as opposites, and emotions, are good to introduce at his age, but I think that he won't master the concepts for a while. But he was excited to watch the video, and was captivated the whole time.
He still does best with signs related to concrete objects, such as food, pets, etc. In Volume 4, I expect that he will pick up first on the food items, like apple (his favorite!), pear, carrot and peach. Other objects like phone and balloon will be good too. But I think it will take some time for him to understand friend, play, share, nice, feel, happy, laugh, sad, and cry.
The music in this volume is excellent, and I think that it's the best composed music out of the series. The songs are upbeat, and Rachel's voice sounds beautiful.
In summary, this DVD is better suited for older toddlers, 18 months and above, but the series as a whole is excellent, and highly recommended.

A great way to educate your child while getting 20 minutes of peace & quietJan 16, 2011
By Kelly M. I have volumes 1-4 and my 10m old goes ga-ga over these. She's already signing 'more' and her version of 'baby'. As soon as I turn on the DVD player she's signing baby and screeching at the children on the DVD. Plus it gives me 20 minutes to fold laundry, do the dishes and other minor house work while in the same room. These are great DVDs. And even if she doesn't pick up on it 100% I'm happy to have those 20 mins to catch up.
The songs are very catchy, my husband and I often hum them around here.

We love this series!Sep 09, 2010
By Jennifer L. Cooper
"WhiteWater"
We had volumes 1&2 for 2 months before buying volumes 3&4. Baby Signing Time is the only tv our daughter watches. She signs 'baby' and goes to the tv to ask to watch the videos. The music in 3&4 is more advanced, I didn't like it at first but it definitely grew on me. Now I sing the songs in my head all the time. We started watching this series with my daughter when she was 14.5 months old. She is now 18 months old and I have seen her sign 52 different signs! Her spoken vocabulary is 17 words and it should be noted that she came into our family from a foreign country at the age of 10 months-didn't understand a lick of English. We are also a bilingual household (trilingual if you count ASL) so signs have really been an important bridge to communication. It is just amazing that she can make us understand what she wants and needs using signs, when those spoken words are still months away for her. Being able to communicate and meet her needs has been important to our bonding as a family. We've also received comments from her developmental specialist that she has a very low frustration level and is advanced in communication for her age because ASL counts as a language! I am very happy with this series and plan to continue our family's ASL education with the Signing Time DVDs.
