Help fund this show to teach kids ASL: the first show highlighting a signing main character! From @mezmalz and @MotionLightLab seedandspark.com/fund/here-c…
ALT However, 95% of deaf children are born to hearing parents, and 85% of those parents do not use sign language at home. This has devastating consequences on deaf children's language and literacy development. There is a gaping void in children's entertainment and media for children who need sign language.
