Learn the Aussie animal key word signs 👐 🐬🐨🐍🦈🦘✨ As a speech therapist, I use Key Word Sign (KWS) with a range of my clients to support their communication by making each word shine brighter.

Key Word Sign Australia: Key Word Sign is a tool or strategy which can be used to support children and adults with communication difficulties to understand and get their message across to others. Key Word Sign (KWS) adds signs to spoken words. The key words in a message are signed. KWS is not a sign language, but it borrows the signs from the sign language of the country it is used in. In Australia this is Auslan.

Key Word Sign Australia acknowledges the Deaf community for the use of Auslan signs.
