About
the Book:
One of the best ways for children with autism, Asperger's, and
sensory processing disorders to learn is through play. Children
improve their motor skills, language skills, and social skills by
moving their bodies and interacting with their environment. Yet the
biggest challenges parents, teachers, and loved ones face with
children on the autism spectrum or with sensory processing disorders
is how to successfully engage them in play.
Pediatric occupational therapist Tara Delaney provides the
answer. In 101 Games and Activities for Children with Autism,
Asperger's, and Sensory Processing Disorders, she shows you how
to teach your children by moving their bodies through play. These
interactive games are quick to learn but will provide hours of fun
and learning for your child. And many of the games can be played
indoors or outdoors, so your child can enjoy them at home, outside,
or on field trips.
More than one hundred games that help your child:
• make eye-contact, stay focused, and strengthen his or her
motor skills
• associate words with objects and improve language and
numerical skills
• learn how to interact with others, how to take turns, and
other social skills needed for attending preschool and school
