About the book


This dip-in-and-out guide will help practitioners to adapt their teaching style to become more inclusive of neurodivergent children, and provide meaningful and innovative ideas that can be embedded into everyday practice.


Featuring activities such as mirrored play, meditation, symbol stories and treasure baskets, these ideas are expertly formulated to support and develop children’s sensory regulation skills and communication skills, whilst enabling practitioners to understand and engage with non-speaking or pre-verbal children.
