Wait time matters: Why pausing helps your child communicate 🀐⏰

One of the most powerful things you can do for your child's language development? Stop talking and wait.

I knowβ€”it feels unnatural! We want to fill the silence and help our kids. But here's what happens when you pause...

When you give your child 5-10 seconds of silence after asking a question or making a comment, you're giving their brain time to:

πŸ‘‰ Process what you said
πŸ‘‰ Formulate their own response
πŸ‘‰ Build confidence to communicate
πŸ‘‰ Practice problem-solving

Our son Moses has been thriving since joining Kids Who Count! From the moment the therapists walk in, he lights up with the biggest smile. They go above and beyond to make every visit special!

Kids Who Count’s impact has been life-changing, they opened our eyes to what Moses's world could look like. They've helped our entire family navigate life with a hearing loss diagnosis, connecting us with an incredible community we didn't know existed.

We are forever grateful for this amazing organization. -Moses’ Mom

πŸ“š What to Read Wednesday πŸ“š This week's pick: "From Head to Toe" by Eric Carle

This interactive classic is perfect for early intervention! As children follow along with animals who wiggle, stomp, and clap, they're building:

✨ Gross motor skills - Encouraging movement and body awareness
✨ Following directions - Simple, repetitive commands kids can copy
✨ Self-confidence - Every "I can do it!" builds their sense of accomplishment
✨ Language development - Learning body parts and action words

Try this: Act out each movement together! Let your little one lead sometimes too.
Even small movements count as big wins! πŸŽ‰

πŸŽƒ Making Halloween Magical for Every Child πŸŽƒ

Halloween can be an exciting but overwhelming time for children with disabilities.

Here are some ways we can support our little ones:

✨ Practice makes comfortable - Use social stories and role-play to prepare for trick-or-treating, costumes, and doorbell ringing

🧩 Sensory-friendly choices - Consider costume comfort, offer alternatives to face paint, and bring noise-canceling headphones for sensitive ears

πŸ—£οΈ Communication supports - Use picture cards, AAC devices, or simple scripts like "trick or treat" to help kids interact confidently

β™Ώ Accessibility matters - Plan routes with wheelchair-friendly paths and homes with ramp access

🏑 Create alternatives - Host smaller gatherings, participate in trunk-or-treats, or celebrate at home if traditional trick-or-treating feels like too much

Early intervention specialists can work with families NOW to develop strategies that turn Halloween from stressful to successful. Every child deserves to experience the magic of the season in a way that works for them.

Does your child need support navigating Halloween or other social experiences?

Meet Aaron!πŸ’™

When Aaron was born underweight and struggled with eating, we didn't know where to turn. Finding Kids Who Count changed everything for our family.

Through their dedicated therapy services, Aaron has made incredible strides! He's now taking food orally – something we once only hoped for. But it's more than just the physical progress. Aaron has grown so much more confident around food, and that confidence lights up our whole family.

The biggest gift? We finally feel like we have a safety net. We're not navigating this alone anymore. With Kids Who Count's support, we're working toward our ultimate goal: getting Aaron off his feeding tube.

We're so grateful for the care, expertise, and hope they've given us. πŸ’š
