A volunteer who is a sign language interpreter has made this helpful guide showing the signs that we teach the children here at New Day Foster Home. All of the children are being taught these signs, even if they are not hearing impaired or language delayed, as we recognize that they can help with communication, especially in the early days of an international adoption. Sign-language is a way that you can communicate with the children during your time volunteering at New Day even if you are not able to speak Mandarin yet, so we encourage you to familiarize yourself with as many of these signs as you can before your trip.
