When do you use the sign BED?
BED anchors bedtime talk: going to bed, staying in bed, making the bed. Parents signing with children use it nightly, and it opens the household-furniture vocabulary that the home lessons build out. Furniture shopping and moving-day stories give it adult mileage well past the bedtime years.
It appears in Lesson 32 of Book 1.
