Communication diagram

I have seen a chart/diagram that lets you communicate with individuals by using to symbols/ pictures on the diagram. Does anyone know the name of this chart or where to buy one ?

Hi

I would have thought that it would be easier to get a waterproof note book and draw on what you want. Will give you more flexibility.

Thi can be used to make notes on also.

That is so funny. I was just looking at a book like this yesterday. It is a 40 page book with nothing but pictures. Pictures of everything - toilets, food, hospitals, banks etc etc.

Really neat idea. If you go on Amazon.com and do a search for 'point pictures' you will find a few of these. The one I saw was called 'Point It' and is pretty funny as well as useful.

Julio - if you had my drawing abilities you would realize that the notepad idea won't do it. A series of stickfigures walking into big boxes with smoke curling out the top would have to do for just about everything.

Carlos,

I always wondered why I keep ending up in the indutrial park part of towns. I need to learn how to draw a stick figure man lying on a beach with a cold in his hand...

Get yourself some adhesive whiteboard tape and cover your gas tank. Buy yourself some whiteboard markers in various colors. You can spend hours amusing yourself (and hopefully others) on the road trying to explain in artistic terms that a stick man on the beach is not a piece of driftwood, and that a cold is indeed a cold .

good luck
