"Since we started this process with our son a year ago, I have been wondering where to go to learn how to help our son develop and move ahead at home. Finally, I found it! The Hanen course More Than Words has been exactly what I've been looking for. Finally I'm being equipped to help my son. Now I know how to challenge him to communicate, engage, play, and deepen his social interactions in the middle of every day life. The course is so practical, with multiple examples of how to apply these principles and techniques in every area: verbal communication, play, reading books, using visual aids, etc. Already we are giving Jack more reasons to communicate - and he is using more words, imitating more often and starting to put 2 and 3 words together - in just a few weeks time. Thank you so much for all your help!"
