Strategies in the Home and Community for Children with Autism Spectrum DisordersSpecific information about helping children with Autism Spectrum and other disorders function effectively in everday life. "Homespun Remedies" provides creative, practical, and proven strategies for helping children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) function effectively at home and in the community. Splitting the book into four general life zones - "home life", "community", "hygiene", and "schools and organizations" - the authors alphabetically list common problem areas (such as bathing, haircuts, feeding, and shopping), and provide "homespun" tips and advice. A practical and accessible resource, this book will encourage parents and carers to "think in autism" - to take the perspective of their ASD child and work to make their environment a friendlier place to be. "Homespun Remedies" is about making small and simple changes that will result in big improvements in the quality of life for children, their parents, families and carers. Hits: 16
