See It And Sign It Game

See It And Sign It Game
Ages: 5 and up
This is a game that helps people to learn American Sign Language. This would be a great game for any child who is interested in learning ASL. Classmates and siblings of deaf children will have a fun way to learn to communicate. It could also be especially beneficial for children who have trouble with verbal communication, or children who are nonverbal. First of all, unlike with most games, a nonverbal person will not be at a disadvantage... everyone will be using their hands and bodies. Second of all, it can give the person a new way to communicate, as they begin learning simple ASL words that they can use in their everyday lives. I want to learn ASL, and I'd love to try this game, even though it is marketed to children! It also comes with a DVD to help you learn.

Braille and ASL Blocks

Braille and ASL Blocks
Ages: 2 and up
Is there anyone out there who did not have a set of alphabet blocks when they were growing up? You know the kind I'm talking about, right? Well, the future of alphabet blocks is here!
On one side of each block is a letter of the alphabet, printed on the block in the traditional way that we've all seen before on alphabet blocks.
On another side is the letter, embossed so that a person can easily trace it with their fingers, as well as the braille cell for that letter.
On still another side is a picture of the letter being formed in American Sign Language.
Since it is a block, there are three more sides, at least one of which has a number. At least some of the blocks have an arithmetic symbol, like a plus or minus sign, so that you can even use them to practice math problems!
I should also mention that they are made from sustainable Michigan basswood.
If you ask me, these cool blocks are worth the price. Every child should have these!
