Lámh Sign For WANT

In this video, I will teach you a sign I introduce to young children so they can start making their first sentences with Lámh. I introduce this sign once children can consistently use signs for some of their favourite toys, activities, or food.

That sign is the sign for WANT.

So, when a child requests “water” with Lámh, I show them the sentence “I want water” with signs and words too. I do this consistently until, eventually, they also start using “I want” sentences.
Sometimes, they need reminding to use all the signs and say all the words in the sentence. Remind them gently to “use all the words” and give them praise every time they try.

Don't forget to check out my YouTube channel for more Lámh signs.
