Aided-language (AAC) in play = increased variety of words used, more flexible language, help with word-finding and language organization for a verbal child

"Help!  I need a little direction again."

AAC on the road - I hit the road (AAC device in tow) for a school consultation this week.

On Facebook this week:  I shared a sampling of blogs written by parents of children who use AAC.  They write about their journey to, and through, AAC in addition to special needs and life in general.  Do you have favorite not on my list?  Please share - I love finding new blogs to read!

In no particular order:

     Fighting Monsters with Rubber Swords

     The Adventures of Chiken & Ham

     AAC and ABCs

     Life on the precipice

     On the Train with Sophie
