Pass it on

If something here helped at your house, the simplest way to pass it on is a piece of paper. This page has a half-page flyer you can print at home. It carries one play idea a parent can try today, one sentence about the book and the address of this site.

The flyer

The idea on it is a game of turns: Roll a ball. Then wait. Three short steps, and a line for parents of babies. Two flyers print on one sheet, with a dashed line to cut along.

How to print

Print at “actual size” or 100 percent, on plain paper or thin card. Color looks best, and black and white still reads well. Most home printers leave a thin white border, which is fine. Cut along the dashed line and you have two.

Where it can go

Hand one to a friend. Tuck one into a book you are lending. Put one on your own fridge.

Anywhere else, ask first and put it up only where you have permission: the notice board in your building, a café, a shop, a waiting room. Nobody is asked to post these in a school, a library, a clinic, a child-care center or any other institution without that place’s permission. If the answer is no, the answer is no.

What this is not

There is nothing to join. No registration, no titles, no reward and no list of names, and we do not know who prints it. It is one parent telling another.

The flyer is a play idea for families, not medical advice, and an adult stays close for every game. If anything about your child’s talking, play or development worries you, talk with your child’s doctor. “Virtual Autism” is not a medical diagnosis; if that phrase brought you here, read what it means.

The book behind this site is Virtual Autism: What Happens When the Screens Go Off.
