An Early Start for Your Child with Autism

Description

Unlock Your Child’s Potential with An Early Start for Your Child with Autism

Recent research has shown that parents can significantly impact the development of toddlers and preschoolers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This empowering guide, crafted by the creators of a groundbreaking early intervention program, offers practical strategies that can be seamlessly integrated into your daily routine. It’s been proven that most young children, including those with ASD, have an incredible ability to learn. Drs. Sally Rogers, Geraldine Dawson, and Laurie Vismara have simplified the process, showing how everyday activities like breakfast or bath time can become enjoyable learning experiences that focus on crucial developmental skills. Real-life examples highlight effective techniques for encouraging play, language, and engagement. By starting early, you can equip your child with the tools they need to explore and embrace the world around them.
