Hi guys
Just joined the group today - my daughter is 10 years old and was diagnosed with autism from about the age of 5.
After trying to incorporate her into our "normal daily life" with my husband and her two younger siblings we realise that it is not working and we need to adapt our everyday life to fit around her more. She is struggling more and more with everyday routines such as getting up in the morning, mealtimes, getting dressed, bed time etc.
After reading these forums I have realised where I am going wrong - we have no visual aids, timetable, reward charts etc and they are all very reccommended by the online community so I am keen to start this straight away
please give me any advice you can on how to get started - design tips, how much / little detail to add, what kind of rewards to offer etc. hopefully these charts will help to keep my 5 yr old son and 3 yr old daughter happy too!! :)
many thanks in advance guys!!
