If a child doesn't have any emerging first words yet, "Please," "Thank You" and "More" are NOT among the first words or signs I introduce in speech therapy. Instead, I try to learn about what the little one loves and teach the words and signs for THESE words. This way s/he will be able to build a collection of words and signs to start communicating with his/her loved ones and caregivers. Try this approach in toddler speech therapy, preschool special education settings or at home! Follow me for more speech therapy ideas, and follow my weekly AUTISM OUTREACH PODCAST.
