An excellent resource for parents and educators Apr 23, 2011
By Speechteacher
This book is an easy to understand guide to a misunderstood and underdiagnosed disorder. Practical strategies are provided, and a collaborative approach between parents and educators is encouraged. This book is a must read for anyone who works or lives with a child with a Sensory Integration Disorder.
Helpful for new teachers or newly diagnosed families Oct 05, 2010
By Teacher Maniac
As a new teacher this book that is extremely helpful, whether you have students that are diagnosed or not labeled. The information in this book will help you teach techniques that can be applied to any student or any daily task. It gives you the foundation of characteristic identification for specific dysfunctions that can be seen in daily activities. Not only does this book show you how to identify these characteristics but gives tools and ideas to create learning environment that helps decrease the child's dysfunction or aids in improves the way they learn in that environment. I would recommend this book to new teachers, experienced teachers, parents, and anyone who is in care of children.
Clear and practical information Oct 17, 2009

"Miller Vaniller"
Researching Autism spectrum disorders can be very overwhelming. The information on medical websites and text books is often lengthy and full of jargon...not to mention the fact that after they name all the things your child has difficulty with, there's no mention of things you can do to help!
"Maintaining Your Sanity with a Sensory Dysfunctional Child and other Spectrum Disorders" by Jennifer Dehmlow is full of ANSWERS. Written in the first person by a mom of two children with similar but different diagnosis, it's filled with REAL examples of behaviors and activities you can do with your kids to help them improve. Some are even fun games you can play on a rainy day to help with sensory integration and fine motor skills.
Every child is unique when it comes to Autism Spectrum Disorders...that's what makes it so confusing! The good news is that the exercises and suggestions in this book are beneficial to all children...no matter what their diagnosis is.
The tone of the book is cautiously optimistic; refreshingly uplifting when you feel like you don't know what to do. It breaks things down into manageable bite-sized chunks with check lists, charts and suggestions to keep things on a schedule.
This book id full of love and hope; the two things these children need the most.
Thanks for sharing your experiences Jennifer, now other parents know they're not alone.
