Out-of-Sync Child Has Fun
|
Carol Stock Kranowitz, M.A
|
 |
 |
| As a music, movement and drama teacher for 25 years, Carol Stock Kranowitz observed many out-of-sync preschoolers. To help them become more competent in their work and play, she began to study sensory integration ("SI") theory. She learned to help identify their needs and to steer them into early intervention. In her workshops and writings, she explains to parents, educators, and other early childhood professionals how sensory processing issues play out -- and provides specific techniques for addressing dysfunction at home and school. |

Peer play and the autism spectrum: The art of guiding children's socialization and imagination.
and
Play and imagination in children with autism. |
Pamela J. Wolfberg, Ph.D.
|
 |
Many children on the autism spectrum spend inordinate amounts of time alone pursuing repetitive and unimaginative activities. Without appropriate intervention, they are especially vulnerable to being excluded from their peer group and leading impoverished play lives. This practical guide offers an introduction to the basic principles, tools and techniques that comprise the Integrated Play Groups model. Building on her award-winning research and previous publications, Pamela Wolfberg essentially translates theory into effective and meaningful practice, giving practitioners, parents and other caregivers the tools to initiate play groups for children in school, home and community settings.
