Description

"Many children at risk for communication delays do not engage regularly in conversational relationships with others. Even when they do interact, they communicate much less than they know. ECO is an approach to assessment and training that shows adults how to help preconversational children learn to communicate through balanced interactions with adults. The ECO program stresses adult-child interaction as the basis for a child learning social play, turn-taking, preverbal communication, language, and conversation. It also increases social interaction and language learning for children with a variety of special needs, including developmental disabilities, motor delays, behavioral disorders, and autistic-like characteristics. It has been clinically tested with infants at risk and older children with a variety of communication delays." -Child Development Media, Inc.
