Screen free learning activities
Many children and young people are using screens for learning and fun as they spend more time at home in the current circumstances. It can be difficult to tempt them away from the screens, but other activities are important in developing social and communication skills, motor skills and emotional regulation. The ideas provided here can be used to prompt children and young people to engage in other activities or to offer them choice using the visual supports. You could add them to a schedule to guide participation, or put on a choice or ‘Bored Board’ and offer a range of options. Remember that some of the activities may need some structure to support engagement.
