Do you have a child on the spectrum old enough to show interest in the internet? Before you set them loose, check out Zac Browser, a free software package "developed specifically for children living with variants of autism spectrum disorders."
"Zac" stands for Zone for Autistic Children. The browser filters out adult content and provides access to skill-building games, stimulating videos, and news from free existing sites. The program greatly simplifies navigation of the internet, allowing more learning and less frustration. The program is also compatible with the Nintendo Wii system for added fun.
You can download the Zac Browser from the official site, zacbrowser.com. If you're on Facebook, also consider becoming a fan of the group, where parents exchange tips and experiences in the Discussion section and moderators post the latest news on autism.
