Communication doesn’t start with words. 👀👋💬 Young children communicate through gestures, sounds, facial expressions, eye gaze, movement, and so much more. Notice it. Respond to it. Build on it. Those early interactions matter. #SpeechTherapy #LanguageDevelopment #EarlyCommunication #ToddlerLanguage #SLP

Communication is so much more than words. 👀🙌💬 A gesture is communication. A sound is communication. A facial expression is communication. Words are only one part of the story. When we recognize all the ways children communicate, we can respond, connect, and help communication grow. #SpeechTherapy #ChildDevelopment #EarlyCommunication #SLP #SpeechLanguagePathologist
