As you are probably aware, many of us learn at different rates and we use different types of media. Some of us learn best during a lecture - Auditory, some with notes - Visual, some people find it best to get in there and do the action - Kinesthetic. We all learn differently, this includes our children. As a child is developing they to are learning using all sorts of media.
Many children whether they have a learning difficulty, developmental delay or just transitioning towards being a toddler will benefit greatly from visual cues. Children who are yet to figure out that the word “bathroom” is a place where we go to wash our hands, may instead need to be shown a visual picture of the bathroom and a child washing their hands while you say, “Lets go to the bathroom and wash hands”. Together they can link the Visual cue with the Auditory words and the Kinesthetic action. Soon they will repond to the visual cue and or the Auditory request.
