Teaching Life Skills to Kids on the Autism Spectrum.

Join us for an insightful series focused on teaching Life Skills to Neurodiverse Kids on the Autism Spectrum and related exceptionalities.

This ongoing series is intended for Parents of Autistic Children who are Independent Learners and will discuss Jennifer McIlwee Myers' excellent book "How to Teach Life Skills to Kids with Autism or Asperger's".

If you are a parent of an exceptional neurodiverse child and would like to learn more about teaching life skills to your child, then this is the place.

This series will provide many useful insights for how to help your autistic child thrive!

While purchasing a copy of the book is not mandatory, it is very strongly reccomended, as we will read it at home and discuss it in group.

* Note: The book is focussed more on kids previously diagnosed as Asperger's, but other kids may benefit as well.

Some of the topics discussed are:

Chores and Helping Around the House

Punctuality and Collaborating with Others

Balancing Dressing for Comfort and Socializing

Manners, Kindess and Getting Along with Others

Living with Strong Interests

Being OK with Mistakes

Activity Switching and too much Video Gaming

Coping with Sensory Issues

Sleep Habits
