ParticipantHi Again
Just want to give a big thanks to everyone that responded to my questions below. I had a lot of responses and I don't think I have replied to every one. THANK YOU for sharing your experiences and all your great advice and stories! It means a lot and has been a great help to us.
Cheers,
DioneParticipantps – also looking for ways to exlain ABA and invite kids over for facilitated playdates.
Thanks!
DioneParticipantHello
Our son is in grade 1 now and we would like to schmooze the other parents and teach them a little about our child and autism in general. The school has suggested sending a book about autism home with each child along with a "Hello my name is and this is what my autism looks like" letter about our son.
Any other suggestions/strategies people have had success with? Should we be hosting a big elaborate party for the whole class at some point?
Thanks for any tips and experiences!
