Questions & Answers - Speech & Language Concerns
My child is 4-1/2 and has autism and his language is starting to
come with single words. How can I encourage language? We don't have
a speech therapist in Bahrain that could help me. I am just trying
my best through the internet. Can you help me in looking for a
website and programs that I can help my son in his language?
Regarding your similar question from today, many children with
autism find success in learning language and functional
communication skills by using either Sign Language or a Picture
Exchange Communication System (PECS). These are two methods that you
can begin using at home with your son. Below are some websites where
you can access information on using Sign Language and PECS:
Polyxo and
visual support;
Sign
language;
Autism news;
Autism disorders.
Hopefully these resources will get you started in the right
direction for helping your son acquire a means of communication.
