🧩 Autism 🧩
Did you know….
Play dough provides a sensory experience that helps to develop fine motor skills, ease tension and improve imagination, aiding early childhood development in a playful way
Children with autism or sensory sensitivity can also benefit from using playdough to strengthen motor skills, help release excess energy, improve focus, and express emotions, and use their creativity in a safe and fun way.
If your child is feeling stressed, sit them down with play dough and watch their worries fade away.
We love this Poem by Tessa Marie Freeman
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Autism Is: ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Unable to speak, or maybe speaking too much
Hugging everyone, or disliking touch
Escaping outside,
Or trying to hide
Excitedly flapping
Inappropriate clapping
Autism varies so much
Won’t wear a coat, or wears one all year round
Fussy eater, or would eat dirt from the ground
Screaming or humming
Annoyingly drumming
Toys in a line
The same way every time
Autism varies so much
Struggling to learn, or has wonderful gifts
Obsessions of numbers, trains, films or steps
Spinning around
Throws things on the ground
Constantly spitting
Aggressively hitting
Autism varies so much
Alone without friends, or controls every game
Always looks different, always dresses the same
Swinging on doors
Head banging on floors
Freaks at the dryer
Keeps climbing higher
Autism varies so much.
Can’t answer questions, won’t do as they’re told
In their own world or bossy and bold
Over prepared
Anxious and scared
A spectrum so wide
But they all bring us pride
When autism touches our lives.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
