Many families with a child with autism or Asperger Syndrome feel
that involvement in the community is not for them. This book sets
out to change that, with a rich and varied menu of suggestions for
how such families can take full part in community life and support
the strengths and interests of their child at the same time.
Informal learning experiences can be the key to self-discovery,
communication, self-confidence, and even independence for many
children on the autism spectrum. Only outside the four walls of
school will your child truly discover their own passions,
abilities, and social peers. Get Out, Explore, and Have Fun is a
guide to what's out there, how to find it, and how to make it work
for your family. The book includes hints and tips for involving
your family in the right community activities, from sport to
science; information on museums, arts organizations and science
institutions as venues for an enjoyable and enriching day out for
the family; and resources and ideas for helping your child build on
their strengths, interests, and preferred learning styles to
explore life in the community. Handouts about autism are included,
as well as handouts suggesting ways in which organisations and
institutions can successfully include young people with autism in
their activities. This book will open the door to community
inclusion, creative exploration, and social learning.
