Introduction
Although our games and activities have been designed to try to help develop language in Autism, our freebie games and activities have been a great success... for everyone... everywhere! And it is from a combination of these two that our latest range has evolved.

A cure for Autism - 'fraid not!
The aim of our games and activities for helping with language development in Autism is two-fold:
1. to instill the notion of 'more', and 'no more'
2. to demonstrate that differences apply within 'sameness'.

I hope that the notion of 'more' may be learned, and in fact spoken, such that it can be transferred to most situations. This small achievement could offer so much to the child who can then influence his environment, and to the parent who wants desparately to engage with the child.

I hope that the notion of language may be experienced by challenging the idea of 'sameness' that Autism expects, with representational differences allowed by names.

Learning through Maths
I believe that maths is an integral part of being human. As human beings, we are continuously looking for patterns and grouping things together. This is how we make sense of our environment. And, I believe that it is at this point that autistic development and so-called 'normal' development split.

Theories come and go, but I have been toying with this same idea  for nearly 20 years. It's time to write it up...
