Sing & Sign Wonder Lab

At Kinderberry Hill, we know that communication starts long before children can speak. Our Sing & Sign Wonder Lab program is specially designed for infants and toddlers, providing a joyful and interactive introduction to American Sign Language (ASL) through the magic of music, movement, and play.

Strengthens bonds

Using sign language creates intentional moments of eye contact, shared focus, and responsive interaction between children and adults. These early back-and-forth exchanges deepen bonds between caregivers and children, fostering a strong sense of security and emotional connection.

Supports Language Development

Signing engages both sides of the brain, building vocabulary before verbal speech emerges, and laying a strong foundation for future communication and literacy skills

Boosts confidence

When young children successfully communicate before they can speak, it boosts their self-esteem and sense of independence. Every successful sign is a small “win” that helps them feel capable and understood.

Building Confidence and Connection Through Sign Language

At Kinderberry Hill, we believe communication begins well before a child’s first words. Our Sing & Sign Wonder Lab program offers infants and toddlers a joyful, interactive introduction to American Sign Language (ASL) through music, movement, and sensory play. Led by skilled specialists, each session blends playful learning with purpose—inviting little ones to sing, dance, explore props, and connect meaning to signs in a way that feels natural and fun. Whether they’re signing “milk,” “all done,” or “please,” children begin to understand and express themselves in new ways, building both confidence and connection. More than just learning signs, this unique experience lays the groundwork for strong language development, meaningful relationships, and a lifelong love of communication.

Children look forward to Sing & Sign every week and the benefits of this very special Wonder Lab are limitless. Families receive frequent communication including song lyrics, sign language visuals , and invitations to join in the play and learning!
