Autism Games

WE have gone BLUE for world Autism Awareness day. April 2, has become the official day of the Autism Speaks community’s “Light It Up Blue” campaign, over 100 buildings around the globe, including the Empire State Building, will be lit up blue tonight for autism awareness.

Join us by wearing your favorite blue blouse, tie or scarf. Or, if blue isn’t quite your color, go blue on Facebook or Twitter by downloading a Light It Up Blue icon to use as your picture tomorrow:

Hello, and thank you for visiting us at Autism Games.

I am sure you are wondering what this site is for? Autismgames.info is a site designed to help a parent or family member who has Autism in their life and they don’t know what to do. This site is designed to help organize the understanding of Autism, give examples, share stories, and add a helping hand when it becomes time to educate.

Some Common Questions many people ask when they are trying to grasp the idea of Autism are….

How do you teach an Autistic child?
How do you get them to interact?
To learn? To listen? To grow? To get better?

We can’t claim to know all the answers but we want to use our experience in the world of Autism to help as many people as we can. Every little bit helps.

Our son Kade was diagnosed Autistic and we had no idea how to help him. Even though had educational experience in Elementary Education we had no idea how to teach our own child. The Autism spectrum is so big, there is not one clear defined way to cure Autism. Every child we have met is unique. We have researched, read, studied and learned what things help an Autistic child to get interested and learn. We wanted to share some of the best educational toys, videos, puzzles and experiences that we have found useful.

Some of the pages in this site are designed to help organize effective toys to use with and autistic child. Autistic children are very fond of stimulation. When a parent can find that stimulation and harness it in an educational environment, it is simply amazing what the autistic children are capable of. Some of these toys we have seen and used at therapy and others we have used with our own son. Each item has a brief description of the item and ways to use they toy to get the most out of it. Under this description you will find ways the toys can be used to work with your kids. ABA therapy is the basis for these toys and descriptions. It has been studied and researched and found very effective for many behavioral and learning challenges we find with autistic children. We have designed this as a work in progress to help everyone keep up the fight to cure autism. We hope you find both the descriptions and toys useful!!

Again, Thank you for visiting and we hope we can help you find a path to success with your Awwwetistic child.

Good Luck and God Bless!

Danon, Cori, Kade and Keegan Law

P.S…We would also like to encourage every family out there with an Autistic child to join your local-Walk Now for Autism Speaks. See dates and locations @www.walknowforautismspeaks.org. I believe that together we can make a difference!
