How this ASL alphabet set makes fingerspelling easier

Each handshape is an original, clean line drawing with the thumb shaded in pink, so the thumb position is always obvious. That detail is exactly what separates similar letters like A, S, E, T, M and N. The written guide describes every letter in everyday language and names which way the palm faces, so you can check your hand without guessing.

Children move through it one step at a time: read the guide, practice with the cards, spell their own name and the names of family members, then play the matching and quiz games and tick each letter off on the progress chart. Dotted lines show the motion for J, Z and the number 10.

Who this sign language set is for

• Children aged 4 to 10 who are curious about signing and want to spell their own name
• Parents and homeschoolers looking for a calm, hands-on language activity to share
• Grandparents, sitters and big brothers or sisters who want a paper chart and cards for practicing with little ones
• Families who have a Deaf or hard of hearing friend or relative and want to begin learning
• Grown-up beginners who enjoy studying with a printed chart and paper flashcards

Design, sizes and printing

• A clean, elegant look: white pages with gentle blush pink touches that are light on ink
• Generous margins all around, so a home printer will not trim anything
• Choose A4 (210 x 297 mm) or US Letter (8.5 x 11 in), both in portrait
• Original drawings of a right hand as it looks when a signer faces you, with a pink thumb
• Undated and reusable, so print the games and practice sheets as often as you wish
