This World Autism Understanding Day, April 2nd, let’s move beyond just being 'aware' of Autism and Autistic people and start to understand, accept and celebrate Autism and Autistic people. 

 

What reasonable adjustments might be required to support children with Autism in your environment?

 

Available

Rifton Blue Wave Bath Seat

  • Seating
  • Description

    This bath seat can also be used for messy activities. It is a portable, lightweight, and supportive seat where the child sits low enough to be able to enjoy activities at ground level.

    Inclusion Possibilities

    • Supports access and participation for floor-based play or group experience
    • Can be used for individual and/or group experiences
    • This chair can be used in the sand pit due to its mesh fabric cover

    Things to consider

    • Educators should consider how this seat will be used within the care environment to maximise children’s participation in the program and to facilitate peer interaction
    • Educators should consult with therapists and parents about whether this chair provides appropriate support for the child and appropriate timeframes for use of the chair

    Storage and use

    • This equipment can be used outdoors and in wet or sandy areas but must be stored indoors to minimise surface damage.
    • The chair needs to be regularly brushed clean to keep dirt and sand out of the moving mechanisms.
