🧩 AUTISM TRIVIA! — Did You Know?
💡 Stimming isn’t “bad behavior.”
Did you know that stimming—such as hand flapping, rocking, spinning, humming, repeating sounds, or moving the body in a certain way—is often a way for autistic individuals to:
✨ regulate emotions
✨ manage sensory input
✨ express excitement or happiness
✨ reduce stress or anxiety
✨ help themselves focus and feel comfortable
👉 Trivia Question:
Which of these can be a form of stimming?
A. Hand flapping 👋
B. Rocking back and forth 🔄
C. Humming 🎵
D. All of the above ✅
Answer: D — ALL OF THE ABOVE! 🎉
🌱 Instead of asking, “How do we stop the stimming?”
let’s ask, “What is the child communicating or regulating through this behavior?”
