Button

Button is signed by taking your thumb and index finger and tapping them together, while the middle, ring, and pinkie fingers are outstretched. In ASL, the button sign starts out as the letter 'F'. Once you have your thumb and index finger touching, tap them to center of your shirt or dress, or wherever it is to indicate where the actual buttons are that you are referring to. For example, to indicate a sleeve button, you would make the sign around your sleeve.

SIGN USAGE

Older toddlers love learning how to use buttons, and the exercise is great for the development of their hand-eye coordination. We use the sign button, so that your baby can ask you when she wants help fastening the buttons.
