Autism and play

Many children on the autistic spectrum seem to be at a very early developmental stage in their play, which is often less spontaneous and varied than that of other children. This workshop is designed to offer play strategies that focus on skills such as visualising, imitation, mirroring and turn taking.

This workshop is aimed at experienced staff looking for alternative strategies, or new staff working with children on the autistic spectrum. At present this workshop is held as a one day course.

Training will be available during January 2010 – April 2010
