Encouraging Communication by Putting Toys Out of Reach

Encouraging Communication by Putting Toys Out of Reach

One great way to encourage your child to use their current communication skills and push them to practice new communication skills is to put toys, snacks, and activities within sight but out of reach.

Following Your Child's Lead

Following Your Child's Lead

Bring out some of your child’s favorite activities. Or bring out novel (safe) kitchen items, or bathroom items, or office items. Brushes, spoons, envelopes. See what your child is interested in. As they are playing, narrate everything they’re doing.
