A study funded by the National Institutes of Child Health and Human Development find that early communication using sign language can raise children's IQ scores and has many other significant benefits. That's a surprising result because nearly no mom will use sign language, but maybe you can star now if you are a newly-being mom.

Signing infants enjoyed numerous benefits including:
1. Increased Ability to Communicate with others.
2. Decreased Frustration (probably due to a better ability to communicate needs.)
3. Better language skills (The ability to understand more words, and an increased interest in books and so on).

4. At the age of seven and eight years the children who signed when they were infants had an IQ that was 12 points higher on average than the non-signing ones.
