Looking for an app that helps children with autism improve their communication skills? Look no further than Flashables 50! Our app features the innovative Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS), a form of augmentative and alternative communication that uses pictures instead of words to help children communicate.
Designed especially for children with delays in speech development, PECS is a proven method for improving communication skills. When using Flashables 50, children are given a set of pictures of their favorite foods or toys. They can then give these pictures to a communication partner (such as a parent, therapist, or caregiver) to request the desired item. This exchange reinforces communication and helps children develop their language skills.
In addition, Flashables 50 comes with English audio and text in three languages (English, Chinese, and Japanese), making it accessible to children around the world. Download Flashables 50 today and help your child improve their communication skills!
The Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) can help children with autism in many ways, including:
Communication
PECS provides an alternative way for children to communicate, even if they have little or no spoken language. Children can learn to use PECS cards to ask for things, make comments, and answer questions.
Social interaction
PECS helps children interact with peers, teachers, and family, which can improve their social skills and help them feel more integrated into different environments.
Learning
PECS can help children understand and follow classroom instructions and daily routines more easily.
Independence
PECS can help children become more independent by giving them a tool for communicating their needs.
Behavior issues
PECS can help reduce challenging behaviors like tantrums, self-injury, or aggression. By providing an effective way to communicate, PECS can help reduce frustration and anxiety.
Spoken language
Some children may spontaneously develop speech while using PECS.
PECS is a well-researched communication system, but its effectiveness may vary for each individual. It's recommended to consult with professionals to determine if PECS is the right communication system for your child.
