Just saw this on NPR, thought it might be a really helpful resource for parents who need nonverbal cues/communication resources. https://thenounproject.com/

That's an interesting website, thanks for posting! They are not PECS though. PECS is a specific set of pictures- the idea being that the pictures are universal (that's also apparently the idea behind the Noun Project, but PECS are generally used in sp.ed. settings universally). I think these might be better than PECS for some kids though, because they are simpler pictures.

Anyway, I thought I'd add SET-BC to this thread because they have a good resource for free PECS if anyone's thinking about starting to use them. https://w3.setbc.org/students/Pages/PictureSET.aspx
