Is AAC right for YOUR child? πŸ€”

One of the most common questions we hear: 'How do I know if my child needs AAC?' The answer might surprise you - AAC can benefit SO many children!

Important: There are NO prerequisites for AAC!

Your child doesn't need to:
❌ 'Fail' other methods first
❌ Reach a certain cognitive level
❌ Be a specific age
❌ Try everything else before AAC

Research shows early AAC intervention leads to better long-term outcomes!

The sooner we start, the better.

πŸ’• This February, we're celebrating LOVE & CONNECTION! πŸ’•

Communication is how we express love, build relationships, and connect with the people who matter most.

Whether it's saying 'I love you' for the first time, sharing feelings with family, or making friends at school - every word, sign, and message matters!

This month we'll explore:
βœ”Parent-child communication bonding
βœ”Social skills for making friends
βœ”Teaching emotional vocabulary
βœ”Valentine's Day communication activities
βœ”How communication strengthens relationships

Research shows that strong communication skills directly impact relationship quality, social success, and emotional wellbeing. Let's spread the love this month! 🌟

🚨 MYTH BUSTER 🚨

❌ MYTH: 'My child needs to master certain skills before they can use AAC.'
βœ… FACT: There are NO prerequisites for AAC!

We hear this ALL the time:
❌ "They need to be able to match first"
❌ "They need better attention skills"
❌ "They're too young"
❌ "They need to point first"
❌ "Their cognition isn't high enough"

ALL FALSE! ASHA's official position statement is crystal clear: AAC should be considered for anyone with communication difficulties, regardless of:
βœ… Age
βœ… Diagnosis
βœ… Cognitive level
βœ… Motor abilities
βœ… Current skill level

In fact, research shows that children often DEVELOP these 'prerequisite' skills THROUGH AAC use, not before it! AAC is the tool that helps them learn, not something they earn after learning.

Don't let outdated beliefs delay your child's communication!

The Power of Early Intervention: Why Timing Matters πŸ•πŸ’™

Did you know? A child's brain develops 90% of its adult size by age 5! This makes the early years a CRITICAL window for speech and language development.

Why early intervention matters:
🧠 Brain plasticity is highest in early childhood - young brains learn FAST!
πŸ“š Language delays don't typically resolve on their own
✨ Earlier intervention = Better long-term outcomes
πŸ’° Early help reduces need for intensive services later
🎯 Prevents behavioral and social challenges

The research is clear: The earlier we start, the better the outcomes. If you're worried about your child's communication, don't wait. Trust your instincts!

Every month of delay means lost opportunities during these critical developmental windows. But the good news? It's NEVER too late to start.

πŸ“ž Concerned about your child's development? Call us at 786-623-4053 for an evaluation.

The best time to start is NOW.

For AAC Devices:
βœ… Many insurance plans cover AAC devices 100%
βœ… We assist with all device funding paperwork

πŸ’‘ TIP TUESDAY: Model, Don't Test! πŸ’‘

Want to support your child's communication at home?

Here's a game-changing tip that makes therapy WAY more effective:
MODEL words instead of testing your child.

❌ Testing approach: 'What's this? Say ball! Can you say ball? Come on, say it!'
βœ… Modeling approach: 'I see a ball! Look, red ball! Rolling the ball! Wow, ball! Big ball! I love this ball!'

Why modeling works better:
✨ Reduces pressure and performance anxiety
✨ Provides natural language exposure
✨ Shows HOW to use words in context
✨ Gives multiple learning opportunities
✨ Makes communication FUN instead of frustrating

Your child will learn better and enjoy communication more when you narrate, describe, and model rather than quiz and demand. Try it today and watch what happens! 🌟

Pro tip: Aim to model each word 5-10 times before expecting your child to say it. Repetition is KEY!

Setting SMART Communication Goals for 2026 🎯

New year, new goals! But not all goals are created equal. As speech-language pathologists, we use SMART goals to ensure measurable progress. '

Example SMART Goals:
❌ Vague: 'Talk more'
βœ… SMART: 'By June 2026, Emma will use her AAC device to make requests for 5 different preferred items during mealtimes, 80% of opportunities across 3 consecutive therapy sessions.'

❌ Vague: 'Communicate better'
βœ… SMART: 'Within 3 months, Lucas will answer simple 'what' and 'where' questions about familiar activities with 70% accuracy.'
Need help setting appropriate goals for YOUR child? That's exactly what we're here for!

πŸ“ž Schedule an evaluation and we'll help you create a personalized goal plan that sets your child up for success!

Why January is the PERFECT time for a speech evaluation 🎯

Many parents tell us they wish they'd started therapy sooner. If you've been waiting for the 'right time' to address your child's communication challenges, that time is NOW.

Here's why:
✨ Early intervention leads to better outcomes. Research consistently shows that the earlier speech therapy begins, the more significant the progress. Children's brains are incredibly plastic in the early years, making this the optimal window for intervention. Every month matters when it comes to language development!

✨ Fresh start, fresh motivation. January provides natural motivation for families to establish new routines and commit to therapy schedules. The beginning of the year is when we're all most motivated to make positive changes - use that energy!

✨ Full year of progress ahead. Starting in January gives your child a complete year to make progress before the next school year begins. Imagine where your child could be by December 2026!

✨ Don't wait and see. While some children do catch up on their own, many don't. Research shows that speech and language delays don't typically resolve without intervention. Waiting means losing valuable time during critical developmental periods.

✨ Insurance benefits reset. Many families have fresh insurance benefits at the start of the year, making this an ideal time to begin services.

The best time to start was yesterday. The second best time is today.

πŸ“ž Call us today at 786-623-4053 or visit https://globalspeechandrehab.com/ to schedule your child's evaluation.
