One of the toughest tasks for teachers (and SLTs!) can be to work with a young child who has underdeveloped attention skills. If a child is unable to pay attention to you, then they will have difficulty listening, and are not available to engage for communication, or for learning.

This is a good way to work on developing attention skills for any child, from the ground up! The goal is to increase the length of time a child can maintain their attention to a particular activity, whether it’s for an extra minute, or an extra second or two!! Progress is progress!

Attention Autism is a fantastic resource if you have a young child that struggles with attention. Find out what it is and how you can use it at home.
