Bird

Make the bird sign by making a beak shape with your index finger and thumb and by bringing those two fingers together, while making a mini-fist with the rest of your fingers. Then tweet like a bird, by bringing your fingers together and apart.

This is one of my favorite signs!

SIGN USAGE

When you see a bird, point it out and make the sign for bird. I often add a tweeting sound effect to the bird sign, to make it a little more fun.

Flash Card

You will want to supplement the flash cards with the animal’s sound. "Tweet … Tweet." Making the sound activates another sense and makes the experience more vivid for your baby, all factors that will help improve learning. It is also more fun!

The bird image loads fine but not the sign image. Ever. I have tried many, many times.

  Hi Julie, We’re sorry to hear that. The flash card download works on our end, though. Perhaps you should try downloading from another browser? Good luck!

  Hi, Thanks for dropping by. The graphics don’t load sometimes if the internet connection is slow. Please check again; it should normally load fine. Thanks.
