Helping child's peers understand SPD
by Heather
(Ambler, PA)
We play frequently with a 4year old with SPD and my daughter is starting to recognize the differences between them as they interact. I want to encourage my daughter to be sensitive to her friend and help her understand some of the challenges her friend has processing her surroundings. Can anyone help me with resources to discuss this with my daughter? I am teaching her that all of her friends are unique and learn in different ways. But I feel at a loss for words fully describing to my daughter what her friend needs. Thanks.
