another happy mummy moment

[signandsmile]

we had verbally, (the dots... are random sounds but with the right inflection)

hiya hiya ow are ooo

hiya hiya..... (signed) see you

hello.....

.............

(signed) please... please.... please....

..........your name!!!!

Recognisable song, mix of speech and signs!

so so proud what a little star!

Beautiful

ha, fantastic, Mr Tumble is indeed god, well done your ds

My DS used to love Fun Song Factory back in the day with both the lovely Dave Benson Phillips and a thin Justin Fletcher. Lots of action songs but only a little real signing. I wonder if your DS would like that if they are still available.

Thanks guys,

also thanks ellen not heard of that one,we have the DBP 'nursery rhymes DVD, you know it, (the one filmed on the farm?) but of course makaton.

I will check if the one you mention is still available, thanks

and have to say we have Mr tumble recorded onto hard drive of freeview box from the TV (all the general signing ones and the 'out and about').

(I think I have said before if I heard the phrase 'tiny trucks' or can you sign 'tiny trucks'?
or oh look here are the frigging tiny trucks! again I will scream!!!

Fun song factory was a channel 4 children's programme from the early to mid 90s. It was available on VHS back when mine were small (DS now 11) but don't know if it ever made it on to DVD. DS loved it. This was pre DX days. There were about 6 or 7 different ones. All songs with actions on a theme. Eg colours, animals etc. A gang of half a dozen children, some dodgy puppets and a few adults. Maybe on amazon?

lol@ EllenJane1 my three DS'S all watched that and loved it bless brings back lovely memories

Just looked on amazon! They do do it. I'd avoid the live stage show. It was awful!

That is wonderful

WOOOW!!! I know the happines u get when the start to say ENYTHING!!!

My ds just started to sing old Machdonaled i sing he 1st part he sings "E IEEI OOOO"!!!!!! sooo happy!!!!

this speaking lark has a downside too tho,

ds has loved the adverts, better than the programmes, just as entertainment, however first time today saw crappy toy advert and said 'mine!!!?'

A little consumer in the making,

Well done to your ds, no wonder your a proud mum. something special/mr tumble is my ds favourite. :)

well done, little signandsmile. My DS was never interested in signing, but loved Mr. Tumble.
