Visual Sensory Crafts
Parents at home can encourage their child’s growth by creating opportunities for them to be involved in arts and crafts. Children with autism show a range of cognitive, motor and language skills, sensory preferences, and interests or disgust. When you think about how best to involve your child with autism in play-based activities, always keep in mind their needs and interests. Researchers and experts in the field often agree that most people with autism think the same way!
About a third of people with autism do not speak quite often. And for those who speak, words may be missing when it comes to conveying the idea. On the other hand, visual communication provides a way to process thoughts more dynamically and emotionally. So I am here with some awesome Visual Sensory art and craft projects for kids with Autism spectrum disorder!
