I'm not sure how old your dd is but mine loves the "Singing Hands" DVD. I got it on the Makaton website.

I know ELC do a DVD as well, but I'm not sure how good it is.

I take it you have the Dave Benson Phillips nursery rhymes one?!
Singing hands are cool!
Would she accept BSL? If so forest books is the best place IMO. www.forestbooks.com/pages/Categories/CV.html Not sure if too babyish tho?

Dave Benson Phillips Makaton nursery rhymes is Fab.
ELC in Exeter were selling the "Sing and Sign" DVDs, They are OK as nursery rhyme DVDs go.

oh, was going to recommend something special (dd lives for it) or singing hands but someone else got there!

doesn't Justin do another programme - Me too? or something like that (not seen it, so not sure whether has makaton or not)

we got the baby signing one the other day. she loves it.
have put DBP one in my basket on amazon and am off to look for the signing hands one,
I love these dvd's, she makes all these movements and then I wake up and realise she is signing(she watshes them in the morning)

DH and I have been lent the whole Something Special set to help us keep up with DS4, they do get a little wareing.

Have added Singing hands to our wishlist.

The Dave Benson Phillips one is good but rather dated now (signs the same though)

Will watch thread with interest.

I have the Makaton catologue here and that there aren't any other DVDs not already mentioned here.
