VODcast: Spring Storms

Just like their peers, some individuals with autism are very frightened by spring storms. We can all help the situation if we remain calm as thunderstorms approach. Help your friend relax by having them put on headphones to listen to music or a book. Help them learn to tolerate the unexpected crashes of thunder and the pitter-patter of rain by letting them make music with a thunder tube and a rain stick. Take a look at this Seesmic VODcast to see a demonstration of very realistic sounds created by a thunder tube and rainstick. Just click on the VODcast below or on our website – http://FAQautism.com
