"Exploring Protactile Language in Early Childhood" delves into the fascinating world of language acquisition among DeafBlind children.
Protactile language, a touch-based communication system, has emerged as a groundbreaking linguistic innovation within the DeafBlind community. While it has traditionally been used by adults, our research seeks to understand how this language can be introduced to DeafBlind children at an early age from infancy to 5.
Early language acquisition is a critical component of child development, and protactile language provides fully accessible communication for DeafBlind children. We are studying how DeafBlind children interact with and acquire protactile language. We hope to contribute to the growth of protactile language and encourage parents to use protactile language communication for DeafBlind children from infancy to 5.
