First, a lovely Happy New Year to all of you! I hope you had as much fun saying goodbye to 2016 as I did!
Being that my business is all about expanding autism awareness and acceptance, I was intrigued by this article about an empathy kit. It was created by a design student who has an autistic sibling. It addresses quite a few of the sensory challenges of autism, including taste, hearing, and vision. Combining something like this with my presentations could make for an even more engaging experience for those who take the trainings.
Check out the article and let me know what you think. Is this a good start on such a concept? What would you add or adjust with the kit?
Also, if you know any groups or organizations who would love an interactive and informative introduction to understanding autism, send them to my classes page or drop me an email!
