Splatter flower toothbrush craft from Crafty Morning.

This activity will inspired your child to be creative and mix different colors use an every day tool : the toothbrush. For kids with special needs that have a toothbrush or toothbrushing adversion, this activity can also help them get used to interacting more easily with a toothbrush!

While engaging your child in these flower activities, you can increase interaction and communication by teaching your child to use an adapted sign for “book” and reading The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle (one of my favorite flower-related books for early learners).

If you’d like to learn more about using adapted sign language to help your child with autism learn to speak, make sure to click on the image below to download your free signing poster. Sign language is a powerful way to teach communication and I am so excited for you to get started.

This is the sign for “book” and one of the first signs I recommend you teach your child.
