Unlocking communication early really helps. If baby can communicate their needs, they will be less frustrated.

My son only used 3 signs actively, but it let him say that he wants water, or stop an activity, or that he wants more.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ˆ was his favourite, he used it to say "again" or "more" or as a general call to action. He was very happy that it worked. It was hilarious when i checked in my suitcase at the airport, saw it ride away on the belt, looked and me and showed ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ˆ to do it again.

He also combined gestures with words later like "๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ is" meaning there isn't, or it's gone.
