Early communication skills for children with Down syndrome


From Woodbine House comes a third edition of Early communication skills for children with Down syndrome. The book highlights how parents can support and encourage their child's speech and language development from birth to age 6 (or when a child can form 2- to 3-word sentences), but parents and teachers will both benefit from learning how to work through characteristic challenges, including hearing loss, intelligibility issues, apraxia (difficulty planning oral-motor movements), or a slower pace of development.
