Hello, after realising we don’t always have our cards with us I decided to create a SEN Digital Emoji PECs system using emojis that brings interactive, emoji-based learning right to you. Designed with my daughter Dotty in mind, it lets you effortlessly create and manage custom categories and items with editable emojis and names. Whether you’re adding everyday items or creating a playful learning journey, everything is at your fingertips.
P.S – if you sign up and login the edits you make will save and it syncs seamlessly across devices all for free, as Maui said, you’re welcome!
Supporting a child with additional needs can feel like navigating a world without a map — especially when it comes to communication. That’s why we’ve created a free, digital set of SEN visual and emoji learning cards, designed specifically for children with autism, global developmental delay (GDD), and speech and language difficulties. These tools aren’t just useful — they’re essential for families travelling, learning, or living life in full colour.
What Are SEN Visual & Emoji Learning Cards?
Our digital SEN cards are a modern take on classic communication tools. Think Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) — but upgraded for the digital age. We’ve blended clear visuals with emojis children recognise from daily life, especially screens and devices they already love.
Each card represents a common need, emotion, action, or choice. From “I’m hungry” to “I need a break,” or from “I feel happy” to “I’m scared,” these digital cards give children a safe, friendly way to express themselves without needing words.
They work brilliantly on phones, tablets, or touchscreen laptops — no printing required, no cutting out, no fuss. Just tap, show, and connect.
Why Use Emoji-Based SEN Tools?
Emoji learning taps into how children with SEN already engage with the world. Emojis are:
- Visually consistent across platforms
- Emotionally expressive
- Familiar from messaging apps and games
- Easy to understand, even for non-readers
For neurodivergent children, especially those on the autism spectrum, consistency and clarity are everything. Emojis offer both. That’s why we’ve included emoji options on many of the cards — side-by-side with custom visuals — to create context-rich tools that support comprehension and build emotional awareness.
