Connect and Communicate

Connect and Communicate Centre for Speech Therapy and Social Communication We are a centre dedicated to supporting individuals to become effective ‘social communicators’.

Our effectiveness as communicators does not depend merely on the acquisition of speech and language. Many individuals are able to talk but not able to relate. Relating requires one to ‘tune in’ to another. It requires self awareness and awareness of others. Hence social communication includes:

-Attending to other people
-Sustaining engagement
-Thinking about others thinking about you
-Relating (through play and conversation)
-Problem solving and adapting one’s ideas
-Elaborating on shared ideas
-Reflective thinking

Happy Chinese New Year! 🧧✨

In this festive time, there's so much happening and so much to look forward to! There are reunion dinners coming up 🍜, angbaos to collect 🧧, new clothes to don 👔👗, family members to meet 👪. How exciting! For our kids, this might also be a confusing time and it is hard to figure out what is happening and what can they do. What a perfect time to introduce them to "STOP" to figure out what's happening which informs what they can do to be part of the group!

Scroll on more to find out what "STOP" is and an CNY-themed example.

How we make meaning of the world starts in childhood. Through play, curiosity, and expression. By joining their play when they’re young, and listening with curiosity as they grow, we support their journey of understanding, connection, and self-expression. 💛

Trying something new can be scary, uncomfortable, and stressful. 😣 You are not alone! Hear Aunty Ling Fong's experience trying surfskate for the first time and how she has stepped out of her comfort zone. 🛹

Time of the year to buy planners (hopefully already on sale) and (try to) get organised! As technology has made it so easy for us to bring our planners in our pockets, the small screen and convenience may not always be the most friendly for those of us who struggle to visualise and feel time (ps: I still stick to a physical planner that gives me both a monthly and daily template). It does not always mean we stick to one type of planner, but it helps to know how each kind of planner helps us to visualise time, makes it easier to be distracted, gives us the satisfaction of crossing tasks out. Which one will you go for?
