What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
This is a clear, wipe-clean communication board that holds your own custom symbols or Talking Pockets, so you can build a simple, low-tech way to communicate that fits one person. It comes in three sizes and is made to be carried, which suits use at school, in the community, or around the house. It doesn't come with symbols or vocabulary on it. You'll need to choose and make the content yourself, and that's where it helps to have an SLP or AAC specialist weigh in.

What setup looks like
- With a guide
- Decide which words, pictures, or symbols the person will use, and print or make them to fit the board.
- Place the symbols or Talking Pockets in the board and check that they are easy to see and reach. Plan on about 30 minutes for a first simple set.
- With professional help
An SLP or AAC specialist can help choose the vocabulary, symbol style, and layout so the board matches the person's skills and daily routines. Plan one session or more, depending on how much vocabulary is needed.
