What this podcast contains Discussed in this Episode: This Weeks Podcast was Created after a Question from Trish: "I am currently in the middle of setting up a calm corner/area within my senior preschool room (4-5years) my kids understand that this area is to be used when they are feeling overwhelmed or just need a little break away. Would love for ideas on what I can add to this area" ✅ Everyone is different. When you create a calm area ask children what they would like to calm them. ✅ Teach how to take a break and what type of break they need. Ie calm corner, toilet, drink, food & movement break. ✅ High energy area. ✅ Sensory toys and tools. ✅ The Space: Don't overload the space! And make sure the space isn't a desired play area Read more about this podcast in the show notes found via the link below suelarkey.com.au/calm-area-resources-for-emotional-regulation Join the facebook group specifically for this podcast https://www.facebook.com/groups/suelarkeypodcastcommunity/ Follow my Instagram account for regular tips https://www.instagram.com/sue.larkey/ To learn more about teaching or understanding ASD, please visit my website below. https://elearning.suelarkey.com.au
