Celebrating Better Hearing & Speech Month 2018

Welcome May 1st, 2018

Children’s Communication Center invites you to participate in our May is Better Hearing & Speech Month (BHSM) Celebration!

This year’s theme from our national professional association, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is Communication For All!

Welcome May 2018

Beginning With Our Littlest Ones!

Language.Literacy.Learning

We are thrilled to share the BHSM focus on early language development and the connection to early literacy and learning in our little ones. We will be posing these by age ranges throughout the month.

SO, be sure to watch for updated blog posts and add your LIKE & FOLLOW to our Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest for all the BHSM activities and events!

Through ASHA’s collaboration with Read Aloud, this message will reach more families and benefit more children!

Why Are We Excited?

In 2017, this Center donated three Little Free Library (LFL) units to the City of Tallahassee and dedicated our LFLs to the families of our community during our Take Your Parents to the Playground Event as part of BHSM 2017.

Our Little Free Libraries Are Different!

Our LFLs are at the community playground at Winthrop Park. This playground is not only in the same neighborhood as our Center, it is a site which is widely used by the children, teens, and families all-year-long.

Share a book & Borrow a book! Little Free Library dedication 2017

The Difference Is The Emphasis On Little Ones!

Our libraries are reachable for little hands and with three units there is space to share books for little ones, early readers, chapter books, young adults, and parenting.

Our LFLs focus on the importance of family reading.

Let’s read with, read to, and read along side our children for 15 minutes each day!

The joys of reading begin with our little ones!

Special Notes

We are proud to share that Lori Savage Grayson, our director and founder, is serving as an ASHA Ambassador again this year as we celebrate BHSM.

Watch for the our BHSM activities and events, including the 1 Year Anniversary Celebration of our LFLs!



Remembering E3 2017 & Looking Forward to E3 2018!

A Childhood Dream

A reflection by Zachary Grayson June 10, 2017

The past month since graduation has been great! I’ve traveled every weekend and have been taking full advantage of having free time while I can.

Today I’m heading to Los Angeles for the next 11 days to go to Electronic Entertainment Expo 2017, E3, and tour!

A Long, Long Time Ago…

In the 5th grade, our teachers told us to draw where we wanted to be in 10 years, or something along those lines.

I drew a picture of my brother and me going to E3.

Where will I be? At E3 with my brother!

 

While I’m two years off of the 10 year mark, it’s close enough!

LA and E3 here I come!

My Art

My art has been on a shelf since I made it. I called my parents from the airport to ask them to find it and take pictures for me to share on Facebook. All these years, sitting on a shelf and here I am following my dream.

Where will I be? At E3 with my brother. Part 2

Children’s Communication Center

Beyond the obvious excitement, I am traveling with my new businesses cards and proud to officially be the Social Media and Technical Adviser for Children’s Communication Center!

The Center is a Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) private practice established in 1993 primarily for young children, however, it has expanded to young adults to meet the needs of the community.

My new business cards!

It is time for me to explore more options for the children, teens, and young adults seen at our Center. I knew my high school English research papers on the benefits of video games for learning were right! Now let’s get a list of video games to use with our SLP friends!

Wait till you see my E3 ‘shopping list’ for the Center, it’s going to be long!

Guess Who?

Guess Who We Found? 6/13/17, E3
