Three years ago our oldest son, Tristan, was diagnosed autism at the age of three. Since I have been working on a Vermont system of care for individuals with ASD and advocating in Vermont and in Washington D.C. for more funding and support for families and individuals with ASD. Through my work I have seen the lack of supports for people with ASD and their families have, so I have created a business, Parenting Autism, to step in and help. Parenting Autism produces DVDs and workbooks to help parents parent on the spectrum. In addition to our exercises and tips in our workbooks and DVDs, Parenting Autism gives all profits back to the autism community.  Visit our website at www.parenting-autism.net

Ready to Learn:Songs for School Success

ellyt's picture

 Ready to Learn!

Cathy Bollinger, a much-loved singer-songwriter who also happens to be a Music Therapist, has written these tunes for use in today’s everyday world. These multisensory songs, I think of them as ranging from snazzy to jazzy, has helped my son to have success in school, through her music: repetition of basic living skills, those of listening, following directions, using friendly manners towards others, focusing on their work, transitioning from one activity to another, accepting consequences and lining up. Plus, TWO bonus tracks are included for a quick reminder or cue to line up or to change activities. These songs are great for schools and I have friends who homeschool their kids and use this too!

My Turn Your Turn: Songs for Building Social Skills

ellyt's picture

 

My Turn Your Turn, the seventh CD from award-winning singer-songwriter, Cathy Bollinger sparkles with thoroughly singable songs that gently address the needs of children who find social interaction confusing or challenging. Using descriptive, social story-like phrases to talk about concrete situations, My Turn Your Turn helps us sing through the tricky territory of engaging with others.

Songs touch on teaching empathy, asking for help, handling anger, taking turns, saving a little of what they are saying till later, and other daily social skills. With music that makes lessons fun to learn, Bollinger, a trained music therapist, breaks common everyday interactions down into simpler and more understandable activities. Who ever said children’s music had to just be for kids? Parents will love the effect of good manners mixed with terrific music and the music is great too!

Zeebu's picture

Hello Everyone,I am the dad of two great kids on the spectrum, Michael 6 and Jack 5. My wife and I deal with challenges every day, like many of you, and look for ways to help our kidos develop skills to minimize these challenges. This has lead us to create a new product: Playtime with Zeebu.Playtime with Zeebu is a learning aide designed for children on the spectrum that allows you to build social awereness with, and for, your child. It's a vehicle that will allow you to stay engaged with your child longer, and with purpose.  Playtime with Zeebu helps you develop the following:

      o Perspective taking - How do my actions affect those around me.
      o Whole body listening - What nonverbal signs are given by my friends that tell me how they feel.
      o Calming techniques - When we are having a "melt down", what can I do to become calm so I can think.

All of this is done in a "Blues Clues" type setting that is fun and engaging for children on the spectrum. To find out more about us and view a sample of the video, please visit: www.playtimewithzeebu.com.

Do you Farkel?

Todd Fugere's picture

My family LOVES to play games. One of the newest ones we've been hooked on is a dice game called Farkel. It's similar to Yahtzee, but way more fun.

I think games are a great way to bring family together. Some other's we like are: boggle, sequence, backgammon, othello, battleship, monopoly, phase 10, uno, cribbage, pictionary, mexican train (dominos), tri-ominos, upwords, gin rummy, blackjack, poker and sorry. We also have ping pong and air hocky downstairs. Not to mention a ton of yard games that we play (when it is nice out). We also play video games togther. We have Wii (Wii bowling is the best) and Playstation 2 (Guitar hero rules!!) and Playstation 3 and I think I have just about every old school video game ever made on my laptop.

So yeah, we are complete game junkies. It's a great way to spend some quality family time. I don't think there is a day that goes by that we don't play something together as a family. Give Farkel a try if you haven't, it's really fun and addicting (cheap too, I think it goes for around 10 bucks).

What games does your family play?

Autism Software

helpingtogrow's picture

My son was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 2 years and 3 months. A month later he was on intensive one-on-one home-based therapy. By five, he was in a regular mainstream school, totally indistinguishable from his peers.

I soon found there was very little software available to teach children with Autism. This document outlines the information on Autism I have acquired over the years and the computer software I used to aid my son's recovery.

To view our complete software list, click on the "Products" tab above.

It is important to understand that without any Autism therapy or intervention, a child with Autism or PDD will absorb far less information and knowledge from the environment than a typical child. A typical child will start to talk at 1.5 to 2 years with almost no help from his parents or siblings. He will then acquire around 6 new words a day and will have a vocabulary of an amazing 10,000 words before the age of seven. A child with Autism may become verbal much later and have poor language and social skills if he is not given speech and behavior therapy. At least initially, a child with Autism must be given a strong knowledge base i.e. he must be taught speech, language and age-appropriate behavior.

To print this document on Autism, click above on "File", then "Print" and then "OK". Bookmark and visit this site again for more tips. I usually add more material on Autism software and other resources every week or two.  read more »
