It may take many models before the child begins to imitate. Thus, the waiting period before helping the child is VERY important. Also, you may model many signs throughout the day, but try to expect only what your child is able to produce in return. If you wish to view more signs, I would suggest borrowing a CD-ROM or video from the library, or taking an adult education class in your area. If you have questions or concerns regarding your child's rate of speech development, please seek assistance form a licensed professional.
