How amazing is this?! 🤣
Today, a client couldn’t wait to tell me all the Halloween jokes he shared while trick-or-treating at the weekend. 🎃
On the surface, it might seem like a simple conversation, but for this child it represented something much bigger.
He has recently begun using an AAC device to support his spoken language and has been understandably reluctant to use it at times. His mum told me that Halloween changed that. He loved using his device to tell jokes, connect with others, and take part in the excitement of Halloween.
Moments like these remind us that AAC is not about replacing speech. It’s about expanding communication opportunities, building confidence, and making sure children and adults can fully participate alongside their peers.
This honestly made me so happy!! I hope you all enjoy his joke as much as I did!
