Happy Decembrrrrr, everyone! ☃️
Learning to wear weather-appropriate clothing is so important! Sensory preferences can make winter gear extra overstimulating, but with some practice and patience, we can all enjoy the weather safely!

As a BCBA, I'm always looking for ways to use AI to expand my ability to support my clients. I've found that Chat GPT can make some great visuals to help with communication! (That being said, it's important to always review the resource before introducing it to a client, as there can be mistakes!)
Using AI saves me time looking through ALL my saved resources and prevents me from searching the internet for a visual that fits just right for my client's specific needs. My favorite part, though, is that I can customize the faces to look like the actual child and make it more relatable.
Below I've attached very simple visuals to use with kids who need to express their feelings, free to use and share!

⚠️ ABA TIP: Use this automatic train-themed domino dispenser to track duration of tolerated wait time!!
☑️ Start the train and a timer at the same time. Prompt the child to wait without touching the dominos. The train will dispense dominos in a straight line. When the target duration ends (timer goes off), reinforce by prompting the client to tip over the dominos and watch them collapse!
⏰ This is great for children who enjoy cause and effect toys and helpful for increasing overall patience.
🌎 Bonus points if you purchase this or a similar toy from a local toy store or on Marketplace!

Using a child's preferences (games, dominoes) to make less preferred tasks (math practice) more fun is a game changer!! Here's one example of a tutoring game I'm using with a couple clients.

National Autism Acceptance Month Fun Fact:
A common misconception is that there is a major discrepancy in autism prevalence among genders. In fact, females are often misdiagnosed or undiagnosed due to their presentation looking different than males with autism. Read more in the graphics here provided by Sea Glass Mental Health. 💙
