This book sets out to change that, with a rich and varied menu of suggestions for how such families can take full part in community life and support the strengths and interests of their child at the same time. Informal learning experiences can be the key to self-discovery, communication, self-confidence, and even independence for many children on the autism spectrum. Only outside the four walls of school will your child truly discover their own passions, abilities, and social peers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGet Out, Explore, and Have Fun is a guide to what's out there, how to find it, and how to make it work for your family.

Handouts about autism are included, as well as handouts suggesting ways in which organisations and institutions can successfully include young people with autism in their activities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book will open the door to community inclusion, creative exploration, and social learning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Jo Rudy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849058091\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849058094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessica Kingsley Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.08w x 0.53d","brand":"Lisa Jo Rudy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447994593535,"sku":"9781849058094","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_760a8d24-384c-4d18-b618-cfee1c5d9f0d.jpg?v=1777236190","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/get-out-explore-and-have-lisa-jo-rudy-9781849058094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
