Kerry,
Have you seen this article?
DeThorne, L.S., Johnson, C.J., Walder, L., Mahurin-Smith, J. (2009). When Simon
Says doesn't work: alternatives to imitation for facilitating early speech
development, AJSLP, 18, 133-145. They discuss the rationale and evidence for
various strategies that might be appropriate for young children who are not yet
talking.

Dear friends, I would also like to know if I should advise my parents of late
talkers (but otherwise typical development) to introduce signs for children
around 18 to 24 months. Also, for those children with no words, is some type of
communication system indicated? Thank you, Kerry Wilson, M.A. CCC-SLP
