10.01.2022 Craft activities are fun for everyone, but for children on the autism spectrum, and the chance to explore color, shape, and sensory experiences can stimulate interest and promote calm, and create a lot of fun! Here are few activities that teachers and parents love to do with their children with special needs. Color Sorting Better to use the new colors on the child , Find an old shoebox and decorations , You can use disposable glasses, or even paper or Styrofoam cups , Tape s...ome ribbon around each cup , Cut a few pieces of each color of ribbon , Put the cups and the ribbon pieces into the shoebox , The child has to sort the pieces and put them into their right containers , Reward your child for completing his workbox activity.. Box o' beans Fill a large plastic tub with sensory beads or dried beans from the grocery store. Put small toys all over and the child put his hands in the box to pull the required objects. This will help the child with sensory issues surrounding texture and touch.. Create a Shredded Flower Bouquet Who knew shredded paper can be so beautiful? This creative activity involves ripping and tearing paper to find a color combination that makes for a great gift or decoration. Will children with special needs like especially sensory experience on paper handling and manipulation of colors and shapes.! Finger painting A lot of mess, but also fun for the child. Finger painting can help children learn about the colors and allow them to discover a new strength by touch. It can also help reduce sensory sensitive through exposure.. Paint with Ice Kids love the cycle of melting more than paint and paper, and create beautiful designs. They will exercise their color recognition and observation skills while paint monitor the transition from a liquid state to a solid state, then back to liquid again.!
