Communication Board
Communication boards are useful tools to help both non-verbal and pre-verbal kids communicate!
Tips for using a communication board
Start with a favorite topic/activity
Point to one word at a time
Praise all of your child’s communication attempts, from touching the board to making eye contact
Have fun, and go at your child’s pace!
Will a communication board prevent my child from talking?
No! In fact, increased exposure to language, including visual supports, can help some children develop language skills!
