You may stay in the International Transit Area of the airport without undergoing immigration procedures. You may also, depending on your transit time, leave the airport since U.S. citizens may stay in Taiwan as tourist visa-free for 30 days.

Minor points to take note of: 1. You are correct about needing to check in early for international flights. You will receive a boarding pass which what you need to get on the planes. I am assuming your flight s are connecting flights. 2. You should be able to find English speaking people at Taiwan airport. Also, you will find English signs to guide you to your gate. You should not need a visa or make extra payment when transiting through Taiwan 3. Absolutely correct for the reverse process Other things. Not sure if your ipod battery can last the whole trip, there are no chargers on the plane. I normally bring a book too. Singapore uses 220V for electricity unlike US which uses 110V, so you have to think if your chargers can be used for it. We also use different electrical sockets, so you may need a travel adapter. But as you are visiting family, they probably can provide you with the correct charger (ipod is popular in Singapore too) For your phone, we use the GSM network in Singapore, so just make sure your phone is a GSM phone. Also note that in Asia, you are not allowed to use the phone at all times when you are in the plane. Guess you are all ready for the trip. Have a good trip and enjoy yourself in Singapore Sounds like you have everything planned well. Minor points to take note of:

For little children, T-shirts with Hawaii print, for elderly,some pre-packaged food products will do. Singapore is getting hotter soon. Enjoy for stay here.
