Our beloved children's book, 'Elephant and the Lost Blanket', is now available to watch in British Sign Language (BSL)! 🐘 📖 We're celebrating International Day of Sign Languages by launching a brand new version of the story, which stars Elephant, who wears hearing aids, and Tiger, who wears cochlear implants. Stories in BSL and books featuring deaf characters help children and families share the joy of storytelling together. They also play an important role in supporting language development, building confidence and encouraging early literacy skills. Alongside the story, we've also provided a glossary of key signs from the book for you and your child to learn together. That's not all! We're bringing you three more stories over the coming months, thanks to funding from Next. Find out more details and watch the story on our website. Link in bio 👆
