We recently took a trip to an aquarium. Like libraries and museums, aquariums are a place where kids are often asked to speak quietly. In an effort not to hamper my son's excitement we went over common signs for things we would see.
Did you know there is a song on the Zoo Train DVD that talks about things that live in the water? It is called "In the Water".
crab かに
turtle かめ
shark さめ
Signing helped my son to tell me what he saw, the color, size, etc. without having to raise his voice. It was also very helpful when he was across the room and I didn't want to yell to tell him something!
