Similar signs-
If you make the same hand shapes, but twist them side to side together in the same direction (instead of away from each other), that is the sign for PARTY.
Just one of the many signs you’ll find inside: PLAY
Make a Y hand shape (page 142) with both hands and twist them away from each other.
When to use the sign-
PLAY is a great sign to use when your baby is in a good mood and you are having fun together. Use this sign when he has a toy or you are playing with him. You can say something like, “You are having so much fun PLAYING with that shape sorter! This toy is fun to PLAY with!”
What to look for-
The Y hand shape is tricky, so your baby might just twist or shake his fists or pointer fingers excitedly.
