Wagtails

Our lovely Wagtails show lots of enjoyment in engaging in Stage 3 of what we call ‘Bucket Time’. This is where the adult leader demonstrates a simple activity, often modelled with another adult in the group. Some children are then invited to have a turn but only if they are comfortable to do so. Not every child in the group will get a turn, which then teaches important emotional regulation skills, as well as the essential skills of waiting, turn-taking and learning through modelling.

This week we took it in turns to choose a coloured paint, squeeze it into a paint pallet and then paint a flower petal. We received some ‘Wow!’ commentary, which was lovely to hear.

There are many Attention Autism recordings to watch on Gina Davies’ YouTube Channel – ‘Gina Davies Autism Centre’. Check them out! :)
