[quote=Anonymous]What books or other resources FOR KIDS? My niece is nearly 3 has childhood apraxia of speech and going into the holidays when we’ll be with them a lot we are trying to help our kids (and the other cousins/kids) understand why M doesn’t speak yet. She may have an assistive technology device by then but she may not. She does not have any words, sounds, animal sounds, or approximated sounds. She does not know sign language yet and she doesn’t use a pecks board yet. My kids still talk to her of course and there’s a lot of gesturing but we want them to better understand that she’s not choosing to be silent and that they can still play and have fun together.
