More Than Words®
The Hanen Program®
for Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Related Social Communication Difficulties.
BubbleBee will be hosting More Than Words® program for parents. Parents and other immediate family members are the people who know the children best and play a role of first teachers, guardians, as well as set up a sample for the child to follow. Children learn how to communicate with others at home, by playing and participating in a family routines, meals and chores.
More Than Words® is a family-focused program that trains parents to help their children under six years of age learn to interact and communicate using everyday opportunities that occur naturally during various daily activities. The unique program was developed by The Hanen Centre (www.hanen.org) and is offered to parents only by a Hanen Certified Speech – Language Therapist who has received specialized training from The Hanen Centre.
