We had a wonderful and very busy weekend at the Sydney Baby and Toddler show meeting so many of you it was definitely one of our best shows yet so I just wanted to thank everyone who took the time to come by and say hello.

It really makes my day hearing all your stories and getting out to these shows gives me such a great opportunity to meet you and your babies.

At this weekends show I gave a talk each morning on baby sign language and how you can incorporate it into your home.

Definitely one of the funniest parts of my talk is the clip for Meet the Fockers where Grandpa Jack shows of his Grandson Jacks signing skill.

This manages to raise a smile everytime I play it

Plus we got some great news for the Baby and Toddler Show organisers that they are expanding into Brisbane and Perth so we’ll be along to see you in your city soon.

With a baby sign teacher in almost every state and a new one coming very soon Australian Baby Hands has grown from my very small vision over 6 years ago and a dream to help parents and babies to communicate using Auslan baby sign.

I couldn’t have done this without the help of so many good people and of course all of you so I hope to see more of you at the future shows around Australia very soon.

We just got emailed today about an interview I did while at The Baby Show in Sydney last September for CNN en Español.

Check out the video clip below, I’m featured at just slightly over halfway through and completely dubbed in Spanish so I’m not exactly sure what I was saying.

If anyone who speaks Spanish and can understand my interview section could put a translation in the comments below I would really appreciate it.
