Does telling your child "time to put the iPad away" usually result in a meltdown? 🤯 You are not alone!

Switching gears from a high-dopamine activity like screen time to "real life" is genuinely difficult for kids' brains. That’s why we love this simple 3-step routine: Stop, Stretch, Switch.

The "Stretch" part is key—it gets the wiggles out and helps reset their energy before moving on to the next task. 🙆‍♂️

Pretend play is more than just fun… it’s a powerful learning opportunity.
When children create stories with toys, they practice skills that support everyday communication and social interaction.

Here’s what pretend play helps develop:

🧠 Imagination & Creativity
Children learn to think beyond the here-and-now—creating characters, stories, and problem-solving moments.

💬 Communication Skills
Acting out stories encourages children to use words, sounds, and gestures to express ideas and take turns.

🤝 Social Routines
Pretend play introduces simple routines like “sharing,” “helping,” and “waiting,” which are building blocks for social interactions.

As ABA therapists, we guide play gently—following the child’s lead, expanding their ideas, and celebrating every step. 🌟

✨ Remember: Play is the child’s language, and stories are their voice.

Attending the WISE conference was an inspiring opportunity to connect with a diverse community of educators from around the world. As an educator myself, it was incredible to engage with colleagues, exchange ideas, and explore innovative teaching methods on a global scale. The highlight for me was discovering how artificial intelligence is transforming education, as the world of teaching moves forward into this exciting new frontier.

Experiencing an autistic meltdown — here are some signs to better understand what might be happening.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) often exhibit hyperactivity, which can significantly impact their behavior and daily routines. To help manage these symptoms, parents are advised to carefully monitor and regulate their child's diet. Specifically, reducing sugar intake can help mitigate hyperactivity spikes, while eliminating gluten and casein—proteins found in wheat and dairy products—may improve behavioral stability. Offering children delicious, safe alternatives that are free from these ingredients ensures they can enjoy snacks without risking increased hyperactivity or behavioral disruptions. Consistently maintaining such a diet can contribute to better behavior management and improved overall well-being for children with ASD.
