  • Communication and Socialisation: Building skills including attention, turn taking, eye contact, and listening through age appropriate activities.
  • Play: A range of practical ideas for developing Play skills which are vital building blocks for child development, particularly social and reciprocal play.
  • Making Sense of Sensory: Understanding a range of strategies to understand sensory differences and regulate their child’s individual sensory profile.
  • Parent to Parent: This booklet, written by a group of parents, discusses a range of considerations for families including daily living skills, behaviour, independence and impact on siblings and other family members.
  • Top Twelve Tips: Used as a ‘quick reference guide’ to support parents and other family members/carers throughout their autism journey and maintain confidence in their knowledge and skills.
