  I’m always on the lookout for good ways to keep Brad entertained. If these   autism activities   are stimulating, even better, and if they help him learn skills, that’s the best. Brad interests change  often but we have a few constants that keep him happy and entertained, often activities that involve stimming, sensory input, or screen time. The following autism activities are all things you can do at home. 1    Sensory bins   Otismo  ,  Water Table

  So when it comes to autism acceptance, I believe the answer is somewhere in the middle. We need to keep in mind  how broad the spectrum is.  There are people on both ends of it, and some somewhere in the middle too, with levels of functioning varying drastically from one person to another, and one day to the next too. ⁣ ⁣ While it’s wrong to assume that someone who is severely autistic can’t do anything, or that someone who doesn’t speak can’t communicate, it’s important to remember that many autistic children never grow up to be independent adults. Some will never learn to communicate, and they’ll require 24/7 care for their entire life. It’s okay to see your autism as a gift, as long as you acknowledge that for many,  autism is a severe disability .⁣

What did you need to hear? When I walked out of Brad appointment I felt every single emotion possible. We waited for seven + years to get that appointment at John Hopkin all children. The day came. The appointment happened. We got the same diagnosis that we get back at the  Pediatric Neurology in Orlando  I left. I cried. Everything was immediately different yet exactly the same. I was not the same woman that walked through the front door. I   become  an Autism mom. A special needs parent. I had a label. I was immediately different from other parents.

  Depending on where you live, your child’s school may be online, in person, or in a hybrid format. Regardless of your school’s plan for the Fall, there is one thing that stands true across the country: school is going to look different this year.  The changes that are going to happen in schools will be difficult for any child to adjust to, and children with special needs are no exception. It will be helpful to prepare your child for what may lie ahead by showing them what is going to be different about school this year and explaining to them why these changes are necessary.  One great way to introduce these concepts to a child with autism is through social stories. These informative stories have graphics paired with simple sentences to help make certain topics easier to understand.   Because of coronavirus, I need to wear a mask when I go places. People in my family, neighborhood, and community are wearing masks. It is important to wear a mask ev...

Anyone with a sibling knows this is the truth, especially when you and your sibling(s) were young kids. But when you have a child that have Autism is tossed into the mix  with totally normal sibling can take a more drastic turn. A big concern for other families is sibling interaction, or lack of. Usually, the issues fall into one of these categories: Step back from the problems, and focus on what you do want to see,  issues with name-calling and teasing? Then you want to see  respect . issues with hitting or kicking? Then you want to see  calm bodies .  issues with always having to win every game? Then you want to see  playing by the rules .  When it comes to behavior: focus on what you want, rather than what you don't want.

"Receiving my son's autism diagnosis was a pivotal moment in our lives, marking the beginning of a journey that has been both challenging and profoundly rewarding. As I navigated the unknown, I learned to embrace the beauty of neurodiversity and celebrate the unique perspective my child brings to the world. With every step, I've come to understand that autism is not something to be 'cured' or changed, but rather a fundamental aspect of my son's identity. Through his eyes, I've discovered a world of wonder, creativity, and resilience. Our journey has taught me to cherish the little victories, to advocate fiercely, and to love unconditionally. As we continue to grow and learn together, I'm grateful for the gift of autism, which has enriched our lives in ways I never thought possible."
