There's Always Something to Talk About! Bestselling Cards Increase Language in Autism Spectrum Kids
Dix Hills, NY (PRWEB) November 20, 2007 -- Whether in the classroom, or at home in an informal setting, teaching a child on the autism spectrum can be a difficult and sometimes demanding experience. But it's also a tremendously rewarding one as the child begins to respond, question, and comprehend, actively taking part in the conversation. The creative minds at Natural Learning Concepts (http://www.nlconcepts.com) know this better than anyone, and have now released their latest special savings for customers worldwide. From now through November 30th, customers can purchase two "Learn to Talk About?" packs of their choice, for just $33 -- a savings of $7 off the regular price!
Why are the "Learn to Talk About..." products so important?
"The 'Learn to Talk About...' cards were created to help children on the autism spectrum within a wide range of abilities," comments NLC Co-Founder Jene Aviram. "For children who are not yet verbal, they enable the parent or teacher to begin with teaching receptive skills and object identification." "And for more advanced students," adds Co-Founder Jocelyn Blum, "they enable students with language skills to move through the stages from receptive to expressive, and on into conversation. Students will learn categories and functions, and how to label receptively and expressively."
But most of all, the packs are fun for kids and caregivers alike. "What can be more appealing than learning about all the objects, foods, and other items that we see every day?" asks Aviram. "Our 'Learn to Talk About...' packs help to satisfy the appetite for learning and structure found in so many children on the spectrum. We're giving kids the answers to the questions they often want to voice, but can't."
Natural Learning Concepts is recognized for its excellent and comprehensive range of books and therapeutic materials to improve communication, language, socialization and comprehension in those on the autism spectrum. Its "Learn to Talk About..." card packs offer a dynamic, easy, and flexible approach that helps children to begin to learn about how conversations work. Each pack includes over forty (40) 5" x 3.5" laminated photo cards, colorfully illustrated with the bright and vibrant photo of an object on the front, and with easy, fun bullet points on the back that describe the item's main characteristics. Created after intensive research and interaction by Natural Learning Concepts, the "Learn to Talk About..." products are ideal for ABA therapy and Verbal Behavior Programs, and were specially created for the treatment of Autism, Aspergers, and PDD-NOS.
