Parenting a Literal Child
It's not just a matter of symantics - for some kids, everything is literal. In parenting several kids with FAS/FAE, I've found that you have to be very careful with your instructions - because they'll be followed!

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Simple signs for communicating in the school setting. Ideal for classroom integration!
In Signing at School, simple signs are presented and combined for communicating in the school setting. These signs and sentences are also useful within a community setting, as they enable the beginning signer to ask questions, give greetings, and give directions, as well as further developing sign vocabulary .

PLAY Tip
Playing Choo Choo with Double Decker Dominoes!
If your child with special needs is between the cognitive ages of 18 months and four years, try making "Choo-Choo trains" with the Double Decker Dominoes.
Place all dominoes face up near to the child. Start the train with one block, call it the "engine." Match another block to the back pattern of the engine block. Together, you can take turns matching the correct shape to the back of the train.
When the train is long enough, let the child push the train off of the table into a basket. A great way to develop sensory processing skills!
