07/31/20 • 28 min
Join Granny Rhea and Auntie Donia (Professor Rhea Paul and Dr Donia Fahim) in a conversation about Girls and Autism: the parallels, similarities, and differences in how girls and boys present with Autism.
The Super Special Question in this podcast prompts discussion and explanation about selective mutism.
Stereotyping toys by gender, particularly for Super Special Kids, is what makes them go ‘aargh’ today and in the Eating Cake for Breakfast segment, the focus is classic games - treasure hunt; duck, duck, goose; hide and seek, simple, fun games that can be played anywhere.
