LIFESKOOL TV Helps Celebrity Babies Cope With the Pressures of Sudden Fame With 'Baby Sign Language'
Web Tutorial Adapted from On Demand TV Network's New Series, My Baby Can Talk, Teaches Pre-Verbal Celebs to Shoo Away Paparazzi, Make Playdates in Hawaii & More By Signing With Their Hands
NEW YORK, July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Suri Cruise, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, Jayden Federline and other tiny glitterati from the ongoing celebrity baby boom live under the same media microscope as their superstar parents. From paparazzi lurking outside their playdates and Gymboree classes to tabloid critiques of their red carpet attire and fluctuating waistlines, star babies are faced with a multitude of situations which they would love to comment on...if only they could talk!
Now thanks to LIFESKOOL, the only free On Demand television network providing exclusive content that inspires and informs, pre-verbal celebrity babes can learn how to communicate to help cope with life in the boldfaced name lane via a new web tutorial adapted from My Baby Can Talk, the network's innovative new series.
Designed and formatted to engage and delight youngsters 10 months and older, My Baby Can Talk brings babies through developmental milestones by helping them acquire basic sign language skills to communicate as well as encourage their first spoken words. Each 15 minute episode includes soothing classical music, real world images and delightful puppet shows to teach simple sign gestures for foods, people, objects, actions and more. Both pre-verbal babies and parents demonstrate all the signs presented in the series, all based on American Sign Language (ASL).
LIFESKOOL's special celebrity baby tutorial, available at the network's website, www.LIFESKOOLtv.com, teaches star babies, their parents and minders, and the celebrity journalists keeping tabs on extremely "Young Hollywood," four crucial "signs" that should be in the lexicon of every boldfaced name's offspring:
-- "No pictures please!"
-- "Do I look fat in this diaper?"
-- "Time to go shopping!"
-- "Let's have our next playdate in Hawaii!"
"Lifeskool is dedicated to providing high-quality programming that broadens and enriches the lives of our viewers, be they mainstream America or Hollywood's hoi polloi," said Dan Ronayne, executive vice president and general manager of LIFESKOOL. "With My Baby Can Talk and our web special for celebs, we're helping American infants communicate, whether their desire is for a bottle of apple juice or a Tiffany-engraved pacifier."
LIFESKOOL TV's My Baby Can Talk series is based on the award-winning video series created by Kathleen Waidhofer, one of the founders and creative director of Baby Hands Productions. The breakthrough learning tool has been endorsed and honored by many prestigious organizations including the National Parenting Center, The Coalition for Quality Children's Media, iParenting Media, NAPPA (National Parenting Publications Awards) and more. Research has proven that signing with a baby can be a key bridge to speech and babies who use signs to communicate pre-verbally score higher on IQ tests and engage in more sophisticated play. Learning sign language also reduces a young child's frustration, decreasing the frequency of temper tantrums associated with the "terrible twos."
