Why Use This Social Story?
Social stories explain situations in simple, calm ways that are easy for kids to understand. They help children learn about social skills, expectations, and everyday situations. Social stories are especially helpful for kids on the autism spectrum or those who feel anxious when they don’t know what to expect.
How to Use This Story:
- Read it with your child in a quiet setting where you can focus together.
- Start by reading it twice with your child, then go over it regularly to reinforce the ideas.
- Try to include the story in your child’s daily routine.
- If the story is about changing a behaviour, read it when the behaviour happens (but not as a punishment).
- Give lots of praise and keep the experience positive.
To make the story last, you might consider putting it in a display book or laminating the pages for regular use.
