Things to do at Home: Adapting Your Home
Use the concept of picture communication systems (PECS). Make or buy picture boards of objects that your child commonly requests and needs. Keep them in various places around your house to assist your child in getting his needs met. Pictures can also be used on electronic communication boards to assist a child while he is learning spoken language. Put visually enticing toys in clear plastic containers out of your child's reach to encourage him to ask you for them. Do the same with favorite snacks, videos, etc. Some things are inherently out of reach already, such as popsicles and other freezer treats. When making requests for snacks and desserts, your child will be more motivated than usual! |
