Developing Leisure Time Skills for People with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Revised and Expanded - Phyllis Coyne, Colleen Nyberg and Mary Lou Klagge

Developing Meaningful Leisure Time for Children & Adults on the Autism Spectrum can assist in making leisure time fun for all children and adults who suffer from autism spectrum disorders (ASD).

Leisure or free time should be a part of the day that everyone looks forward to -but for many on the autism spectrum, it can be a painfully unstructured part of the day that causes anxiety and fear.

This book provides comprehensive, structured strategies introducing meaningful leisure time to ASD children and adults, which they can practice at home, school, and in the community.

The first half of the guide includes a wealth of ASD information, including forms and charts that will help to assess sensory needs, select age appropriate activities and assist in determining the level of interest in specific activities.

The second part presents 37 "Activity Cards" for going to the park, playing games, and many more!
