OK or weird?
My youngest children are twins (2 years 3 months old) and their talking is quite poor (quite common in twins - particularly for my son apparently). My son has very few words that he chooses to use but has decided to copy Mr Tumble and is signing lots of things (my daughter has now decided to sign too and brings me the objects she is signing, does the the sign and says the word - I think she thinks I am a bit simple!). Do you think this is OK or is it a bit weird (I think it is a bit weird myself!).

your twins are roughly the same age as my youngest. Her speech has only suddenly changed in last 6 weeks and she is now rabbitting away.
She loves Mr Tumble and i watch her copy the signing when she watches.
The twins probably have the attention of their older siblings plus can communicate with each other so i wouldnt be concerned that they are finding different ways of doing so

I'm not worried that they are dimwits or anything - just think they are a bit odd (in a nice way). Feel a bit of a dimwit myself as I don't know what they are signing half the time (can't be doing with Mr Tumble so I try not to watch it and I am falling behind with my signs - I only know about 10!).
