Today is Alphonse’s cousin Arielle’s 18th birthday and he is attending the party with the whole family. I should have worked on this earlier, but with all that was happening, I forgot to prepare this earlier. We will use this for this afternoon’s session and hope he calms down for tonight.

Please describe how well these stories worked? Have you made new ones after these? Thanks!
He has a few new ones in his IPad, and they’re sort of an instructional on how he is supposed to do things or how he is to behave when he experiences something new for the first time. His”picture books” help diminish his anxiety over new things, though I’ve also found out that having a written list when we are short of time also works (he can read a bit, and I know he does because he can choose answers to multiple choice questions correctly with a high percentage of accuracy). When he knows what to expect, he is less likely to run away or shun new things. We do need a new one for a visit to the doctor because he needs to see the ear and nose specialist this week for a second check-up. 🙂
