Course overview
Lesson Overview

11.14 – Navigating Transitions With Advance Preparation: Change is difficult for many autistic children, but preparation transforms chaos into confidence. Parents can use stories, visual timelines, or short discussions to preview what’s coming. Simple explanations like “We’re leaving in ten minutes” or “After dinner we’ll go outside” build predictability. Advance preparation allows the brain to adjust gradually. Practicing transitions through play or gentle countdowns can make real events smoother. Consistency and patience help prevent meltdowns. When changes do occur, acknowledging the challenge validates the child’s feelings. Over time, children become more adaptable because they trust that transitions are manageable, not threatening. Preparation turns unpredictability into opportunity for resilience.
