What is Makaton?
Makaton is often known as key word sign and gesture. It is system of communication based on a combination of spoken words, sign language vocabulary (originally adapted from British Sign Language), and graphic symbols.
The idea is to use key word signing to support the communication development of children or adults who are unable to speak, or whose speech is difficult to understand.
