Cute
Cute is signed by taking your index and middle fingers and brushing them downward against your chin. You can remember the sign, because it is like brushing the cute chin of your baby.
SIGN USAGE
Cute, being an intangible adjective sign, is best left to more advanced signers. The most popular way to teach it is to use it as a term of affection with your baby. Then expand its use to things you see with the baby during your day, like the family cat or a flower. They probably won't understand what it means at first, just that you are happy, and that makes them happy.

Flash Card
Cute is best taught through providing many real-life examples. Start by referring to just a few things as cute, then expanding your usage as the baby starts to learn the sign. At the expansion stage, you can add the cute flash card as a further example of something that is cute.
