Teach basic game play and improve language development with MagneTalk Turns & Topics. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) enjoy playing games, but often ¿regular¿ game boards are too overwhelming and confusing. The simple game boards and basic Topic Cards in MagneTalk Turns & Topics are specifically for children with ASDs. The targeted games allow students to have fun and increase their concentration skills gradually while they learn basic game playing and communication skills. The four Turns & Topics magnetic boards increase in difficulty to allow each child to improve skills at his/her own pace. The 166 Topic Cards improve basic language skills by covering eight important areas of communication: Feelings, Numbers, Letters, Basic Concepts, Seasons & Weather, ¿WH¿ Questions, Nouns, and Verbs. The white backgrounds on the boards and cards limit distractions, while the Giant Magnetic Pawns are good for children with limited fine-motor skills.

Lizzie is an Aspie Girl - she has Asperger's Syndrome, which means that her brain works differently to her friends, and even to boys with Asperger Syndrome. In this book, Lizzie explains what it's like to be an Aspie Girl, including how she has a special talent for blending in with her friends, how she gets really tired after being at school all day, how she worries about making mistakes, and how she finds it hard to understand how she is feeling. By simply, clearly and positively explaining the social differences associated with Asperger's Syndrome, or Autism Spectrum Disorder, in young girls, this book will help Aspie Girls aged 5-11 to understand their diagnosis, recognise their unique strengths and celebrate their differences, and find ways of coping with difficulties. This positive and celebratory book also contains helpful discussion points for parents and professionals to explore further with the girls in their care.
