Day
Day in baby sign language looks like the sun rising over the horizon. Your non-dominant hand and arm should lie flat in front of your body. Your dominant arm starts vertically, with the elbow resting on the non-dominant hand, and your index finger extended upward while the rest of the fingers are drawn into a fist (i.e., the letter 'D' in ASL). Make the sign by sweeping your dominant hand down toward your non-dominant forearm, so your index finger traces an arc in the "sky", which is the area around your arms.
SIGN USAGE
Day can be taught more easily by contrasting a picture of day with a picture of night.

Flash Card
There are two ways to use and teach the sign for day. Teach it to introduce concepts of chronology (10 days until Christmas) or to contrast day & night.
