How to use this Website

Signed Stories has been designed primarily as a website for deaf children – though we are aware that hearing children will enjoy it too. It’s a fun, busy space which encourages children to explore and offers easy access to a wide range of the best of British books.

But it's also designed to be a resource for adults to use alongside children. The videos can be paused while you point to signs, illustrations and words, and the introduction will tell you why we've chosen those stories - which ones are good for introducing new signs or adding props and toys and which ones are simply fun to share.

And the website's a great way to introduce babies to books. Read tips on using books with babies here.
