while we're at it, are there any books specifically on auditory processing?

I LOVE the out of sync child for the info it gives about the sensory integration disorder that's a big part of my son's autism, and for the info it gives on dyspraxia which is definitely part of what my daughter with hypotonia is going through... but she also has to fill the lulls with lots of sound, even if it's just babble, and she has to repeat the same phrases over and over, and her speech therapist is talking about auditory processing--- is there a book that helps specifically with this?

thanks.

Raising a Sensory Smart Child talks about auditory processing, disorder, sense, sensitivity...

May I also strongly recommend that you join the Auditory Processing Disorders yahoo mailing list. Maxine, the moderator, is extremely knowledgeable, and generous with her time and expertise. There are also numerous other helpful members.

I've recommended The Out of Sync Child & The Out of Sync Child Has fun to many parents. They have great ideas & really help explain sensory processing & disorders of the sensory integration system.

Look here

Thanks! Does The Out of Sync Child Has Fun have ideas for babies also?

How old? I honestly don't remember, but once you have a better understanding of whar is "scary" vs. what you child craves. it will be easier for you to create activities that will be beneficial to him/her.
