Hi, my name is Teresa. I have a 7 year old daughter with autism. I also volunteer for the local NAS and run a parent/ carer support group. Sharing experience and coping strategies is enormously helpful, which is why I think Netbuddy is such a good idea. I'm looking forward to picking up some good tips... |
Use a digital camera to make your own cards for this game. you can photograph your own matching pairs ie your dog, your home, family, etc You'll need two of each.
Carry a small piece of Blue tack or similar for your child to play with if they are fidgety and need to touch and play with something. They can make little men and characters or just roll it in their fingers.
I mix cornflour and water together and it makes a great sensory play tool. Also put flour into a plastic bag and seal it with some food colouring. As it gets squished round it will change colour.
If you need a communication aid and you're having problems finding something that your son or daughter finds socially acceptable, try an iTouch with Proloquo2Go http://www.proloquo2go.com
