World Emoji Day

Emojis are just symbols used to communicate feelings and emotions.  Emojis play an important role as tools in our Speech-Language Pathology services at One Kids Place.  Our Augmentative and Alternative Communications Clinic is designed to support a child when they have significant challenges with speech and emojis are one way to help foster communication. 😁👍  For more information about our AAC Clinic visit us at https://www.onekidsplace.ca/augmentative-alternative-communication/
