Taking Care of Myself: A Hygiene, Puberty and Personal Curriculum for Young People with Autism de Mary Wrobel

Taking Care of Myself: A Hygiene, Puberty and Personal Curriculum for Young People with Autism

Autor Mary Wrobel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2002 – vârsta până la 18 ani
Winner of an iParenting Media Award!
 
Puberty can be especially tough when young people have autism or other special needs. Through simple stories similar to Carol Gray's Social Stories, author Mary Wrobel teaches caregivers exactly what to say and not say, and shows how you can create helpful stories of your own. Mary addresses hygiene, modesty, body growth and development, menstruation, touching, personal safety, and more. Young students can benefit from self-care skills such as using the toilet, brushing teeth, and washing hands. Parents and teachers should begin teaching these necessary skills as early as possible, even from ages 3-5. The ultimate goal is to maximize the child's potential for independence and lifelong social success.
