Creating a PECS Communication book

1. Start with a thin 1” binder and add tabbed plastic dividers.

2. Use AI to add your child’s name and something they love right on the front cover to slip into the clear pocket.

3. Add strips of Velcro soft roll cut into about 8” pieces and stick them onto each plastic divider page.

4. Print and laminate your chosen PECS to add to your personalized book. The book I’m creating is starting with food items to have the student learn to identify and request foods which is a primary reinforcer.

5. Add other ABA style pictures such as a waiting hand task, yes/no pointing pages, to do/all done task pages and whatever you feel your child needs to learn such as requesting using “I want…”, “ I feel…” etc.

✨ Parents: If you’d like me to make you a book, please feel free to send me a message. I’ll send you the materials you need to buy and we can discuss the contents and price.

These numbers cannot be ignored 😳 There is an attack happening on our children. They deserve to live healthy happy lives playing not in therapy all Day My own son struggled with speech and learning was on the verge of a autism diagnosis, had massive sensory struggles along with eczema and to top it off got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes Since then I have been looking heavily into why this is happening often spending endless nights researching the cause of all his struggles, did I mention his older sister is also a type 1 diabetic and his brother and sister also had issues, We worked out with hair analysis that all our children’s bodies especially our son even me and Sven was loaded up with heavy metals and environmental toxins - causing inflammation in his brain and throughout the rest of his body, causing a disconnect. This also meant we were all mineral deficient which all made sense, you see heavy metals and mineral deficiency is connected, heavy metals draw into the cells completing with minerals and mimicking minerals which causes so many issues for our bodies, Since we changed our whole life to clean and whole foods and using natural supplements that aren’t loaded with synthetic toxic ingredients I started to heal my son and whole family. So many have said to me “you can’t heal autism”. Please listen to me .... is neurological damage and brain inflammation caused by toxic overload actually autism? Or perhaps it just looks like it and this is what doctors are diagnosing because MAYBE they don’t want to admit or care to understand that the very things they are recommending is what’s causing this insane and crazy epidemic? Healing is happening with children all over the world you just need to stop the bombardment of toxins, detox toxins - flood with minerals and watch what happens. Damage can and is being reversed as I did with my son. Drop 777 in the comments and I will send you a message with what we are doing and what is working for me and my family!

Did you know that MYHFR gene variants can make you more susceptible to a variety of health conditions? That said, just because you have an MTHFR genetic variant doesn’t mean you’re destined for those conditions❣️ MTHFR variants can make it harder for your body to run a process called methylation. This is a foundational pathway that supports detoxification, hormone balance, mood, DNA repair, and even fertility.🥰 So when your methylation isn’t running as efficiently, the body can become more vulnerable, especially if you have nutrient deficiencies, toxin exposures, chronic stress, or inflammation. But when you give your body the right support, you’re giving it the tools it needs to function well and helping safeguard against many of the health challenges associated with poor methylation. 👉Lifestyle really matters here. Nutrition, toxin exposure, gut health, stress, and targeted nutrient support all influence how well methylation runs, regardless of your genetics. See the slides 👆 for practical lifestyle tips, including nutrients and supplements that can offer additional support if needed. If you’d like the link to the methylation support supplement I use in practice, comment MTHFR, and I’ll send it your way. Always check with your doctor before starting a new supplement. 😊 And if you’re curious about your own genetics, you can always ask your provider about MTHFR testing.
