Communication Junction Winter Class Schedule
From Communication Junction
Communication Junction offers a variety of private and group classes created to improve
communication with children and families. We believe sign language promotes early
communication, reduces frustration and tantrums, improves reading skills, and may even
increase IQ.
Each Sign and Play class is designed for children ages 0-36 months and their parents, grandparents or caregivers. All classes include movement, play, songs, and early literacy activities.
