From the Publisher
Some days are harder than others. Remember, go easy on yourself and take it one day at a time. You can teach kids many things by joining in with your child the way THEY play.- even if that it’s different from the way you would do it!
We are all different. Educate yourself and others about neurodiversity acceptance. Help reduce the stigma of being autistic or a parent of an autistic child. Learn about the eight senses and why they matter.
Help your child or student be who they are–even if that means they are different! We want kids to grow up confident and unapologetically about who they are.
Neurodivergent minds often communicate differently. Be flexible- learn and understand how someone else communicates and meet them where they are. Doing this shows empathy, understanding & love.
