Creating schedules using Avaz

Image
Dear Friends,  In this video I am sharing how I created schedules using Avaz.  For children with autism, anxiety is an issue with their daily life situations. For reducing their anxiety, a visual schedule plays an important role.  Advaith likes to go for Horse riding every day, but riding classes are opening only on weekends. And sometimes they will cancel their sessions due to rain or because of other reasons.Then he was very upset and was communicating for riding. After ef fect was there during weekdays mornings and he was resisting to go to school. So I created a schedule like this in Avaz and was playing it when I am trying to wake him up in the morning. So he was getting up with clear ideas and he was really comfortable and there was no confusion. It really helped us. I tried to make schedules like this, if there are any changes in his routine so it is really helping to reduce his anxiety . So I am sharing this to other parents. Regards Smrithy

"This post I am dedicating to all siblings of kids with autism " They are the best brothers and sisters, they are the angels in our life.It is very important to  give quality time for them also. We all are always trying to balance our time for both kids. While doing the course my dissertation topic was 'understanding siblings thoughts " and it really helped me in this journey. That dissertation you all can read in my blog. smrithyrajesh.blogspot.in Adhithya is 3 and half years older than Advaith. Adhithya was always ammas boy and was more attached with me.In Advaiths delivery time also Adhithya was with me in hospital. Advaith was a happy child and was always happy with Adhithya. When Advaith diagnosed with Autism, my relatives were telling me that, I was giving full attention to Adhithya and that's why it happened to Advaith. As a mother I was completely lost at that time and I was in a difficult situation. Adhithya was going to UKG, at that time.
