Developed by Annie Clements, of Autism & ADHD this book has been contributed to by Academics, A Philanthropist, Speech & Language Therapist and Health professionals, meaning that the book is sure to add value to any child's day. With a different activity for the child to complete each day, we've made sure that the book won't get boring, encouraging the use of different neurodevelopmental pathways to explore feelings, find creativity and process thoughts and feelings."Everyday experiences can be many things; amazing, joyful and beautiful, but they can also be confusing, frightening and overwhelming. As human beings, we all need to find ways of sorting and categorising these feelings to help us make sense of our worlds as we go about our daily business. This lively, pocket-sized book encourages children with Autism to engage in creative activities and use them as effective emotional outlets. Through drawing, writing, sticking and gluing the young people can reflect on their feelings, give voice to their emotions and allow others an insight into their worlds. Primarily aimed at children with Autism, I believe that everyone would benefit from actively engaging with this book - I shall keep my copy in my bag and use it everyday!"
