Facing any type of change can cause confusion and anxiety for
individuals with autism spectrum conditions. This book looks at the
small transitions in everyday life that can be a big deal for a
child with autism and offers simple and effective strategies to
make change less of a daily challenge. Explaining why seemingly
minor changes to routine can be emotionally distressing for
children with autism, this book teaches parents practical solutions
for coping with common transitions including switching from a
weekday to weekend schedule, the changing of the seasons, and
sleeping in a different bed when on holiday. With insights from the
authors' personal experiences and helpful scripts, signs and
sketches to use along the way, this book shows that with planning
and preparation parents can reduce the stress surrounding change
for their child and the whole family. This book is the perfect tool
to help children with autism deal with change in a calmer and more
confident manner and will be essential reading for parents and any
professionals working alongside them.
Reward plans encourage positive behaviour using the incentive of
earning rewards. This book provides a thorough nuts-and-bolts guide
to creating a reward plan for your child with Asperger Syndrome
(AS) to help him or her develop positive behaviours, such as social
and communication skills. John Smith, Jane Donlan and their son
Bob, who was diagnosed with AS at age eight, explain the importance
of keeping a reward plan positive, specific and challenging enough
to be stimulating. Helping your child to learn about positive
behaviour while gaining a sense of achievement, a reward plan
increases self-esteem, confidence and independence. Create a Reward
Plan for Your Child with Asperger Syndrome is full of advice and
practical suggestions for how to tailor a reward plan to meet your
child's specific needs.
