Every parent has been there…
Your baby is crying. You know they want something and, if you can just figure out what that “something” is and give it to them, the crying will stop.
Unfortunately, figuring out what your child wants is a matter of trial and error.
So, one by one, you go down the list of every possible thing you can think of that might turn off the waterworks. (Food. A bottle. A fresh diaper. Their favorite blankie.) Eventually, you’ll figure it out, and peace and quiet will be restored to your home. The question is whether it will take you 3 minutes or 30.
The entire process can be very frustrating for everyone concerned.
If only there was a way for your baby to simply tell you what they wanted right away, before the first tear was even shed.
Well there is a way. It’s called baby sign language!

I like to help people find unique ways to do things in order to save time & money -- so I frequently write about "outside the box" ideas that most wouldn't think of. As a lifelong dog owner, I often share my best tips for living with and training dogs. I worked in Higher Ed several years until switching gears to pursue things I was more passionate about. I've worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo -- to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV. You can always find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
