Tip of the Week: Break tasks into smaller, manageable steps.
What feels like a simple instruction - such as “Get ready for bed” - can be overwhelming for a child with autism and related diagnoses. Instead, try giving one direction at a time:
🧼 “Let’s wash our hands.”
🪥 “Now it’s time to brush our teeth.”
🛏️ “Next, we get into bed.”
Step-by-step instructions reduce frustration, support independence, and build confidence.
✨ Tip: Pair each step with a visual or gentle praise!
