When to use pictograms with your child?

Pictogrammes routine du repas
Meal routine pictograms

The effective use of pictograms largely depends on your child's daily routines and contexts where visual communication can be beneficial. The most suitable times to introduce this mode of communication are:

Pictogramme garderie montrant un adulte lisant à deux enfants dans une maison Pictogramme voiture illustrant une petite voiture rouge Pictogramme carottes illustrant trois carottes avec leurs fanes Pictogramme boire montrant un personnage buvant dans un verre

Of course, we don't start using pictograms at all these times at once! It's important to choose a time when your child will be more likely to use pictograms and when you will also be available to introduce them. These moments should be enjoyable and fit easily into your daily life to be beneficial.
