4th of July Autism Tips

4th of July Autism Tip # 1: Don’t declare independence just yet! Help your kiddo get familiar with this unfamiliar day by using a visual schedule and using new difficult situations as opportunities for your kid to ask for help!

4th of July Autism Tip #2: Fortify your bases! Create a “fort” or safe environment for your child so he or she can take breaks by themselves.

4th of July Autism Tip #3: Hope for the best, plan for the worst! Help your child navigate through this day by planning ahead. If you know your child is sensitive to loud sounds pack an extra pair of ear plugs, just in case the first pair suddenly gets “lost” when you most need them!
