and nonverbal.
Nonverbal communication has been defined as communication without words. It includes apparent behaviors such as facial
expressions, eyes, touching, tone of voice, as well as less obvious messages such as dress, posture and spatial distance between
two or more people.
Activity or inactivity, words or silence all have message value: they influence others and these others, in turn, respond to
these communications and thus they are communicating.
Commonly, nonverbal communication is learned shortly after birth and practiced and refined throughout a person’s
lifetime. Children first learn nonverbal expressions by watching and imitating, much as they learn verbal skills.
Young children know far more than they can verbalize and are generally more adept at reading nonverbal cues than adults
are because of their limited verbal skills and their recent reliance on the nonverbal to communicate. As children develop verbal
skills, nonverbal channels of communication do not cease to exist although become entwined in the total communication
process.
