Just Deaf

"At the day care they watched the Lotte & Max DVDs with the children, and that's how they learned how to sign."

Learning sign language

"At the day care they watched the Lotte & Max DVDs with the children, and that's how they learned how to sign."

"We simply went to visit all sorts of schools."

"I think it's important for them to learn to be around hearing people as well."

"The advantage of deafness is easy international communication, I want them to know that."

"I notice that Bob and Sophie are very visually oriented."

"I think bonding and interacting with your child is the most important thing."

"People looked at me funny when I said I didn't think it was sad to be deaf at all."

"It's vitally important that they're able to play with other deaf children."

"The children don't care if you're hearing or deaf, it's about someone being able to sign."

"You end up in this medical scene, I almost forget to enjoy having my child."

"We often have the computer turned on: the archives of the Handtheater has lots of fun things for the children."
