Christmas

harrysmum

Hi.  I'm mum to a 5 year old son with autism.  He's in mainstream school and I was looking for any tips or advice on dealing with Christmas.  The other children in his class are excited about Santa and I'm wondering how to explain things.  Also any advice on dealing with all the changes to his routine?  Thanks.

  • We celebrate present giving on December 5th or 6th (never can remember which it is) anyway St Nicholas Day.

    Patron Saint of choristers and pupils, though this was extended to all children.

    This is a day purely for the giving of presents, which are never wrapped and I have usually given all of my ones before the date anyway.

    Christ's Mass is celebrated appropriately and I keep the 1931 Coca Cola Christmas stuff as far from me as possible.
