About this book

Learn the alphabet and how to sign it, on the same page.

In short

The ABC Sign Language Board Book is a personalized alphabet board book that pairs each of the 26 letters with the American Sign Language handshape and a photo you choose. It is 5.25 x 5.25 inches and a fixed 26 pages — no additional pages can be added — takes 28 photos (26 letter photos + 1 cover photo and 1 back cover photo), and is printed on durable glossy board in the USA, for toddlers and preschoolers.

The ABC Sign Language Board Book teaches two alphabets at once. Every spread carries the printed letter, the American Sign Language handshape for it, and a photograph from your own family that starts with that letter — so the letter, the sign, and a meaningful image all arrive together.

Signing is a well-established bridge for pre-verbal and early-verbal children, giving them a way to communicate before speech catches up. Learning the manual alphabet alongside the printed one also builds fine-motor control and gives hearing children an early, respectful introduction to ASL.

The book is a fixed 26 pages at 5.25 inches square, printed on ultra-thick glossy board with rounded corners and made in the United States. Sturdy enough for a toddler practising handshapes with one hand while holding the book with the other.

Who the ABC Sign Language Board Book is for

  • Toddlers and preschoolers age 1–5 learning letters
  • Families who sign at home, including Deaf and hard-of-hearing households
  • Parents using baby sign language to bridge the pre-verbal stage
  • Preschool and early-intervention classrooms introducing ASL

Why the ABC Sign Language Board Book works

Learn letters in more than one way

Pair each letter with an ASL sign to give children another way to interact with the alphabet. Seeing the letter and practicing the corresponding handshape can make learning more active and engaging.

Make learning hands-on

Signing gives little ones a way to participate even before they're ready to say every letter or word out loud. They can see the letter, practice the sign, and connect the two as they learn.

Make the alphabet personal

The ASL signs introduce something new to learn, while your photos make the book familiar and fun to revisit. Fill each letter with photos from your child's world to create an alphabet book they'll want to pick up again and again.

What to put on the pages

  • Family first names for as many letters as they'll cover
  • Objects your toddler already signs for: milk, more, dog
  • Photos of your child's own hands forming a few of the shapes
  • Places and pets for the tricky letters
  • A cover photo of the whole family signing something together

Occasions families gift it for

  • Second and third birthdays
  • Preschool starting gifts
  • Gifts for Deaf and hard-of-hearing family members
  • Baby-sign classes and early-intervention programs
  • Christmas learning gifts

About the ABC Sign Language Board Book

What is the ABC Sign Language Board Book?

The ABC Sign Language Board Book is a personalized alphabet board book that pairs each of the 26 letters with the American Sign Language handshape and a photo you choose. It is 5.25 x 5.25 inches and a fixed 26 pages — no additional pages can be added — takes 28 photos (26 letter photos + 1 cover photo and 1 back cover photo), and is printed on durable glossy board in the USA, for toddlers and preschoolers.

Which sign language does the book use?

It uses the American Sign Language (ASL) manual alphabet — one handshape per letter across all 26 pages.

Do I need to know ASL to use it?

No. The handshape is printed on the page, so parents typically learn the manual alphabet right alongside their child.

How many photos do I supply?

Twenty-eight photos in total: 26 letter photos, one for each letter of the alphabet, plus 1 cover photo and 1 back cover photo. The book is a fixed 26 pages, and additional pages cannot be added.

Is this useful for a hearing child?

Yes. Many hearing families use signing to bridge the pre-verbal stage, and learning the manual alphabet is an early, practical introduction to a language millions of people use.

What age is the ABC Sign Language Board Book for?

Recommended for children age 1 and up. The rigid board pages, rounded corners, and non-toxic inks are designed to survive teething, tossing, and daily story time with infants and toddlers.

How many photos and pages does it include?

26 pages — a fixed-length book, so no additional pages can be added. You supply 28 (26 letter photos + 1 cover photo and 1 back cover photo).

How big is the book?

Each board book measures 5.25 x 5.25" — sized to be held and read by little hands, with spill-proof, wipeable pages.

Where is it printed and how long does it take?

Every ABC Sign Language Board Book is printed and bound in the United States. Production takes about 5–7 business days, then it ships to your door — no international waits, no surprises.
