In a country like India with a population of about 1.3 Billion , this translates to a population running into millions.

What does that mean to you?

It means that you would be meeting someone on the Autism Spectrum in your lifetime who may or may not look like they are struggling with Autism or may not even know that they have Autism but struggle to fit in to our society in their day to day interactions.

It means knowledge about Autism could mean that we could be kinder and build each other up.

Today is World Autism Awareness Day. Maybe we can spare a moment to do something as simple as googling 'how can I help a person with Autism' and start a journey to awareness.

🍁Hearing all sounds of spoken language is more complex that hearing fleeting sounds like pressure cooker whistle or crackers and so on..

🍁Optimum hearing should occur a wide range of frequencies and decibels
Hearing loss may range from Mild to Profound

🍁If a child has mild to moderate level of hearing loss they will hear loud sounds and even may understand words by guessing if spoken to them in a quiet environment and face to face but otherwise struggle to understand what's happening around eg, if they are in a crowded environment or if the speaker is another room or facing away from them.

Always consult a professional for information specific to your child.

Look what I got!

Kokachi and Makachi:Down to the village is a sweet story of 2 monsters who head to a dreaded human village ! But why?

The title intrigued me and evoked a wonderful sense of nostalgia. For a Malayali child, Kokachi &/or Makachi is the dreaded monster who would grab us if we didn't behave or so our parents /grandparents would vehemently threaten😄 . But it was truly a refreshingly sweet perspective to see the monsters terrified instead. Wonderful capturing of Malayli folklore and giving it a new twist.

This is the Kindle version. It has a colourful eye catching cover page and the B&W illustrations have a lovely Monsters Inc vibe to it. Would be interesting to children who are already reading independently.

(For more such info Follow 🧡)A major skill like Reading, requires fundamental skills such as ones mentioed above to be strong:( contd from above)

🎀 Listening Skills: Paying attention when you say a story or give instructions

🎀Age adequate Expressive language: He/She is able to speak according to their age

🎀Phonemic Awareness: The awareness of letter sounds. This need to not necessarily mean that your child has mastered all the alphabet. But for eg when you say the sounds(not letters) d-o-g they should be able to link the sounds together to say the word 'dog' and so on..

🎀Concept of Print: That there is the front of the book and back , that there is left to right directionality when we read etc..

Though there are many other, these are considered major markers of future reading ability and are targetted during sessions with a professional

Note:Always ask a professional for information specific to your child

Communication with a child should always be about deliberate engagement. Take the time, slow down, forget perfection on your terms and see the world through their eyes. It's worth it.

(more info below🧡)Simple and almost ordinary as they sound, these are as important as the foundation of a building being built. The building is only as strong as it's foundation.

Pre-linguistic Skills like the name suggests come before expressive language ie speaking emerges.

Just like before a child starts to write the alphabets he must first

*Hold a pencil
*Learn to manipulate it
*Draw lines, shapes etcc and finally
*Write

Similarly it's so with language. So what are these pre-linguistic skills?

⭐ Initiation: Child takes interest by pointing or vocalising to initiate communication with you

⭐Turn taking: Child learns to take turns in communication. You say then he says then you say again and he is looking at you and waiting to take his turn and so on

⭐Joint Attention: When you draw his/her attention to an object or event by pointing and looking, he/she follows your gesture to that object and back to you
And he initiates doing the same

⭐Attention span: His/her attentions pan with one specific activity especially for communication becomes longer and longer with string eye contact and gestures

⭐Responds to people: They love it when people talk to them and mimic gestures and sounds they hear around them.

Always consult a professional Speech Language Pathologist for information specific to your child
