Take your kids on a neurodiversity affirming journey of self-discovery
Are you a parent, SLP, or professional striving to help your kids build self-awareness, confidence and self-advocacy skills?
Do you ever feel like itâs difficult to find activities that are 100% ND affirming and fulfill that goal?
I understand (really, I do). Youâre not alone, and youâre definitely in the right place...
Iâve worked with autistic kids for over 20 years as an SLPâŚ
Â
When I first started making the shift to ND affirming practices, one big goal I always set for students was to work on self-advocacy.
I wanted to help kids navigate their world effectively without having to compromise who they are, helping them to become more confident and independent.
But I quickly realized, self-advocacy canât come before self-awareness, acceptance, and confidenceâŚ
I needed fun, engaging activities to guide students from self-awareness, to confidence, and then to self-advocacyâŚ
I tried everything: TPT activities that lacked depth and werenât 100% ND affirming, online websites that fell short, and cobbling together my own resources (lotsa work!).
And over the years (after more than 500 hours of research), Iâve finally put together a pack of my most fun, simple, engaging, âat-their-levelâ activities to help kids feel safe, confident and empowered in their neurodivergence.
