Leederville Toy LibraryCooperative, sustainable and fun. Quality toys are selected to assist with development. Borrow a large range of regularly updated toys.

Signing is used successfully with both hearing babies and those with speech/developmental delay. Classes are from 6 months to 4 years.

Research shows that introducing signs alongside speech to young children enables them to communicate much earlier than speech is possible, reduces frustration & crying and enables you to know what your baby is thinking and needing.

Signing Hands classes are full of fun, teaching signs through stories, songs, puppets, toys, music, craft and play. A course book helps you continue your signing at home. New courses run each term.

Thursdays from 12.30 - 3.30.Free trial classes are available. Contact Debbie on 0437 803 978.
