[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 68046, member: 1991"] That's really good news, for a start. A thought, about anxiety issues, communicating feelings, etc - difficult child 3's aide made him a circular thing with a hand on it (like a clock face with one big hand) and around the edge she put various faces to show his mood. He could dial up how he was feeling, without having to put it into words. We also have the HUGE poster with simplified faces, each showing a different facial expression. He's outgrown it now, I think, but it was very helpful for a long time. We would play "expressions" with him, we'd say a mood or feeling, he had to mimic it. One of those games where playing it also rehearses it. I hope it continues well after this good start. Marg [/QUOTE]
