Rockin Autism Family

Playtime and sports

   My kiddo is hyperactive so getting him somewhere he can blow off steam is a must!  This can be hard on some families.  You might have multiple children and busy work mixed with school schedules can make this difficult.
Time isn't the only problem autism families face in our up hill battle.  Financial issues can be hard to tackle.  This is where being creative can be helpful.  We are one of those families that fall thru the cracks.  My husband took over supporting us.  Sometimes working seven days a week to put food on the table.  This usually means I am the one finding ways to give Prince A his sensory needs through play.  Just so happens that a few miles down the road YMCA has an amazing sensory playground with baseball and soccer fields.  The Miracle League has baseball, swim lessons, basketball and other activities for special needs kids.  The YMCA even provides help for families with financial needs.  You cannot beat that!  If your wanting to get your kiddo and family involved, but wasn't sure if you could afford it, look into your area.  Whatever you do, do not sit back letting time go by thinking there is nothing you can do with your child because of autism.  You would be pleasantly surprised if you just go for it.  Please show me some pics of your asd kiddo at play or in sport activity! I would love to see them!
