What skills do I even start with as I’m potty training my autistic child or student?  Which strategies will help me best support the child as I begin to teach these skills?  Today we will be talking about which skills you can start with and the types of visual and sensory supports can help you potty train with compassion.  You will also learn where to get the brand new free Toilet Training Guide from Autism Little Learners.  Be sure to listen to episode 18, which was part one of this 3 part series on toilet training.  In that episode we talked about how interoception differences and language delays can make potty training more difficult for young autistic children.

• Where to start with potty training your autistic child or student
