One suggestion I have with the morning routine is to keep an "Andy's school box" in the living room where on the night before he learns he has to put his DS and anything else he needs to take to school in his box even maybe clothes he is going to wear the following day for school . Then it will become part of his routine and he is learning to take the responsibility of planning his own morning. If its not in the box he knows it is down to him and may learn to make sure he puts it in the box so he doesn't get stressed not having it.
This is somethings I'm getting my son who's quiet young, he's a year behind himself and I'd get him sensory items, lights on them, maybe something with different textures. Music is a big thing so I get his own disc made up for his favourite songs, it helps him settle down.
I have high functioning autism AS myself. these were some of the toys and things I played with when I was little. Bean bags, soft foam mats, big plastic hamster tubes, one of which my mum stole from a special needs playgroup when I left there and attended mainstream nursery School for a year or so until I moved to boarding School age 5. Physical activity toys, floor cushions, inflatable balls which can be blown up very soft so your windows, glass doors Etc are safe, noisy squeaky jingly rattling sensory toys or musical instruments, soft sensory stuffed toys, musical toys, music boxes, construction lego, duplo, stickle bricks, multi link bricks if they're still around. Haven't seen those for probably around 25 years, but I remember them well, kanex, or I did see something a bit more simple than kanex which was tubes, wheels, buttons, flat plastic squares with curved over edges which snapped over the plastic tubes, craft straws, coloured touchy feely things, just about any household items which are safe for children or even adults with special needs to play around with them. I raided kitchen cupboards or anywhere else where I could find sensory stuff and play with it. This was of course, several years before the beginnings of tablets, smartphones, portable games consoles Etc, which would have probably kept me amused from when I got up in the morning until it was time for me to go to bed at night. We did have a Cassio keyboard which was my Granddad's. I spent hours playing round and making a lot of noise with the demo songs, only 8 rather harsh sounding musical instrument sounds and separate buttons for chords and a separate rhythms bank. Electronic musical keyboards and other such instruments offer an awful lot more flexibility and scope for imagination these days.
We made a short list of acceptable gifts that would benefit our kid. That way when relatives asked we already had the answer. We went with things like books, sensory need items, and donations to the college fund (college is expensive here so parents start saving the second kids are born). Anything that would be a special needs item for the person or child is probably the most helpful gifts. Of course what those items are greatly depends on them.
Ideas of presents: 1) Toys/Figures of their best-loved TV shows. This could be sensory toys to take out and about with them. 2) A calendar/weekly journal to help keep track of events, plans. 3) A music device (even a phone) that has all their favoured music on. 4) DVD's, Books, Board Games or Video games. 5) Clothes (make sure there are no tags in that may be painful if child has sensory problems with clothing)
My gift idea is a bean bag chair, bubble tube or body sock. I got a balance board last year to work on my coordination at home, and I use it as a foot fidget while I’m doing homework. For smaller gifts, maybe spares of the child’s/person’s favorite type of fidget or preferred item.
I think it would be a good video! Family members could ask if they have special interests and could get them something like a toy, book, stuffed animal etc. related to a special interest.
Is there anyone who has a child more than autistic? Possibly shyzo as well... ? My son is severly mentally disabled and turning 10 soon. He is getting very angry at school this year. VERY Angry. He never had big Problems. He is currently hitting kids and teacher "without reason" (maybe in his head)... I was given risperidon for him to try. It made things worse and also some side effects. Anyone here having similiar kids?
i am late but all my meltdowns were because millions of tiny things would irritate me, not limited to but majorly including little tiny sensory things, and i'd eventually get really frustrated. if he's verbal, ask if his clothes are comfortable, he's alright at school, etc, just ask if he's alright. if not and he doesn't know sign language or anything else, maybe he could write it. he may find it hard to word things so you'd have to investigate yourself. maybe talk to the teachers? just wanna say, you misspelled psycho and it's not really nice to accuse someone of it for being frustrated.
Kev i know it would be difficult but if you was going to do a gift vlog, think it would be best to do a collaboration with someone so you can get a wider range of gift ideas.
Maybe list some good sensory toys such as kinetic sand or those bubble/lights that are more expensive so parents might not get them during the year. Other than that idk :/
A book but with a puzzle inside of the book and one more thing for autism kids a spikey ball what comes out and back in I will send u a pic on twitter Kevin ok
@@kevinchapmanvlog very well said. i think people over exaggerate titles. For example, in the video where he ran away, people were expecting something overly tragic. the thing is, in that video, he LITERALLY ran away. he ran towards the church because he was excited to hear the bells. And just like in this video, he was refusing to board the bus (which the title clearly explains)

growing up I had a box by the front door. it contained my shoes, backpack, and anything else that was to go out of the door with me.
For the autism gifts ideas
1.) Sensory toys.
2.) Lights.
3.) Noise cancelling headphones.
4.) Whiteboard (for a weekly timetable thing)
i love the idea of noise cancelling headphones. maybe noise cancelling earplugs would be good idea as well as they aren't as bulky

I love the gusto box part of the video! It's a great addition .

This reminds me of old Andy you’ll get through it pal 👍👍
As an idea for the Christmas present video, maybe "things to consider when buying gifts" so things like noises, lights, faces, the wrapping paper
Good luck to Anna for her exams
Love the daily vlogs

Perhaps pop-up books might be a good gift for kids with autism.
I had to get homeschooled because of it
