TD Social Skills has created a much-needed product for high functioning children
Product Description
TD Social Skills Specialized Tools for Improving Peer Relationships
TD Social Skills is committed to providing information and tools to help children make and sustain friendships. There are many areas of development that if not addressed can hinder a child's social relationships. Children need to:
Develop self-control by regulating strong emotions
Use and "read" body language
Learn good communication skills
Have an awareness for the impact their own behavior has on others
Understand other peoples perspectives
Learn problem solving strategies
Learn social norms
Understand social discourse
Teaching and reviewing these complex skills is good for all children but essential for many, especially those with high functioning autism and Asperger's Syndrome and non-verbal learning disorders
Video modeling has been shown to be an effective tool for children to see why an interaction goes wrong and what can be done to get a better outcome.
