Children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) often have sensory
processing difficulties. They may be very sensitive to particular
sounds or materials, or unresponsive to injuries most children
would find painful. This practical book offers a six-step approach
to developing a successful programme to help children cope with
sensory input they find overwhelming, and to identify activities
they may find relaxing or rewarding. Sue Larkey draws on her
experience of working with children with autism to offer more than
30 activities using touch, sound, taste, vision and movement, and
gives advice on how to use these activities as opportunities to
improve children's communication skills. She provides detailed
photocopiable checklists to assess children's sensory reactions,
sleep patterns, sense of movement and use of eye contact. Parents,
occupational therapists and educational professionals will find
this workbook to be a rich source of fun ideas for improving
sensory processing in autism, and easily adaptable for children
with other special needs.
