The music and the signing were interesting. Younger ones lost attention quickly. "This is a grown-up movie."
This is a good idea but the signing is too fast for young children to track. Some songs are simply wonderful and can be used to build enthusiasm for learning to sign. Animation lacks appeal. It's probably best used in segments.
Learning sign language offers benefits for hearing kids even if they never use it. Improves reading and motor skills and appreciation of different cultures. Hosted by Ken Lonnquist, from the National Theater of the Deaf.
