I have been told by DS3's Speech Therapist that I should introduce simple PECS for 2yo DS3, for things he isn't picking up the words or Makaton signs for.
How do I go about finding the pictures? I did a little bit of PECS with DD years ago, but I drew the pictures myself.
Would you take photos and load them on the laptop abc print them out? Are there websites with specific resources and pics I could print?
I have bought a laminator, as when I did it with DD many moons ago, I didn't have one, and I was having to redraw the pictures repeatedly.
She also suggested using pictures as a prompt for my older DC's (all on the spectrum & dyspraxia) to help them organise themselves.
Like a strip of Velcro, with pictures of everything they need to do on a school morning, and when they have done the job, they put the pic in the basket.
Am I going to he taking a lot of photos?
