Santa visits are such a fun holiday tradition, but they can feel tricky for our DHH kiddos. Here’s a quick tip: Let Santa know your child’s name ahead of time and, if he’s cool with it, ask him to pull his beard down (or part his facial hair) so your kiddo can see his lips while he chats! Perhaps your local Hands and Voices or DHH family group just might be lucky enough to organize and hire a Santa who is DHH friendly or knows sign language!💬💖
These little tweaks can make such a big difference in helping our kids feel included in the magic. 🌟
