I have tried to find a cdrom with the makaton symbols on so that i can use it to put on all my boxes along with the picture of the content and the word - but i didnt realise how much they were?! i have a makaton booklet with how to sign words in makaton, but really wanted the symbols to print off to make my resources labels more inclusive. does anyone know how i can go about this?! i cannot afford £70 odd (makaton website) - especially as i dont need all the levels - just for things like jigsaws, toy cars, books, drink, etc .

You could scan them - then print:thumbsup:

my booklet is how to sign the signs not the actual symbols - used as TEACH in schools/day centres - i used them when i worked with adults with LD

Do you have any baby signing books (this is makaton too) ....so could use those - perhaps borrow from the library to scan?

nope! :rolleyes: i used the very basics with my dd but tbh we have fallen out of the habit :blush: and my knowledge has diminished too altho i can easily refresh. will ask at my school as it has a dsp (autism) unit but wont hold me breath! might see if i can get in touch with some old workmates - didnt think of that til i wrote on here! der:idea:

Well if you get some - don't forget to share!;) :D

I'm trying to scan one of my books - probably not all the signs you need, but may be a start - though if you could get the proper makaton signs think may be better!

Any good? - There are more obviously, but to give you an idea!

Have you looked on here ?

Not had chance to have a proper look but you may find something.
